Robe

/roʊb/ noun

A robe is a long, loose outer garment, often worn for warmth, comfort, or ceremony. Judges, graduates, and people at home in the morning all might wear robes.

From Old French *robe* “dress, garment,” from a Germanic word meaning “plunder, spoils” because clothing was often taken in war. The meaning shifted from “stolen clothes” to just “garment.”
