Definition

The act of removing clothes or robes; undressing, especially in a formal or ceremonial context.

Etymology

From disrobe + -ment (suffix forming nouns of action/result). Creates an abstract noun describing the action or process of disrobing.

Kelly Says

Medieval and royal courts were obsessed with ceremony—'disrobement' was as formal as the robing process itself. The removal of a monarch's regalia was a ritual act, not just casual undressing.
