A modern gown refers to several types of garments. It can refer to a woman’s dress, especially a formal, or especially fancy dress. It may also refer to a nightgown or a dressing gown. In academia, gowns are also worn for various occasions. “Gown” in the modern sense generally refers to a ball gown. The gunna was worn by Anglo Saxon women and consisted of a long, loose outer garment. The gunna was also called a cote, surcoat or a robe.
Gowns were worn by students attending early European universities in the 12th and 13th centuries. The gowns and hoods worn would indicate their status. From the 14th to the 17th centuries, the term gown was used to describe any long, loose, robe-like garment worn by both men and women.
