Ceremonial garb is clothing worn for special occasions and ceremonies. It typically includes ROBES and gowns. ROBES are usually long, loose-fitting garments with long sleeves, while gowns are usually more fitted and have shorter sleeves. Both ROBES and gowns are often made of luxurious fabrics such as silk or velvet. Ceremonial garb is often decorated with intricate embroidery or beading and is often worn with accessories such as hats, gloves, and jewelry.
