Cloak (clothing)

A cloak is a type of garment that was attached at the neck or over the shoulder and would have various lengths down the back. It may have an attached hood that was sometimes used to obscure the face of the wearer. A cloak was commonly used to protect the wearer from the weather. It could be made out of various types of cloth.
