Flowing garments are garments that are designed to move with the body and often have a loose fit. Two examples of flowing garments are capes and ROBES. Capes are usually sleeveless garments that are open in the front and fasten at the neck. ROBES are usually full-length garments that are open in the front and fasten at the waist. Both capes and ROBES are often made from lightweight fabrics such as silk or chiffon, which allow them to move gracefully with the body.
