Etymology

The word 'gown' has its roots in the Middle English word 'goune,' which was derived from the Old French term 'goune' meaning a loose outer garment. Historically, gowns were associated with nobility and formal occasions, often made from luxurious fabrics and adorned with intricate details. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass a variety of garments, from academic robes to evening wear. The use of 'gowned' as an adjective signifies the act of wearing such a garment, reflecting the context of the occasion. 'Gowned' is commonly used in both formal and academic settings, particularly in reference to graduates and participants of ceremonies where gowns are a traditional part of the attire.
