A loose fitting dress is a type of clothing that is not form-fitting and is usually made from light, airy fabrics. The term 'loose fitting dress' can refer to four different types of garments: a CHEMISE (7 letters), a SHIFT (5 letters), an ALINE (5 letters), or a TENT (4 letters). A CHEMISE is a straight, sleeveless dress that hangs loosely from the shoulders. A SHIFT is a simple, straight dress with no waistline or darts. An ALINE is a dress that is fitted at the top and flares out at the bottom. Lastly, a TENT is a dress that is loose and boxy in shape.
