pelisse
A pelisse is a type of women's outer garment that originates from the 18th and 19th centuries. It is often characterized by its loose, cloak-like design, made from various materials such as fur, velvet or cashmere, and often lined with fur or quilted fabric for warmth. It typically reaches down to the ankles and may have decorative elements like embroidery, ribbon, or fur trim. Historically, a pelisse was worn over a dress or other clothing to provide added warmth and protection from the elements.
