A loose dressing gown is a type of clothing that is worn for comfort and relaxation. The two most common types of loose dressing gowns are the PEIGNOIR, which is a French term for a long, sheer robe, and the KIMONO, which is a traditional Japanese garment. Both garments are usually made of lightweight fabrics such as silk or cotton and feature long sleeves and a sash or belt. They are often decorated with intricate embroidery or other embellishments.
