Draped garment

Drapes can be held to the body by means of knotting, pinning, fibulae, clasps, sashes, belts, tying drawstrings, or just plain friction and gravity alone.

[2][3] An advanced form of the garment is the tailored dress, which is constructed from fabric that has been cut into pieces and stitched together to fit various parts of the body.

Many visual arts of the Romans and Indian sculptures, terracottas, cave paintings, and wood carvings (also shown in picture gallery) representing men and women show the same, unstitched clothes with various wrapping and draping styles.

Kasaya, another rectangular piece of the Buddhist robe, is a real example of the draped garment.

[4][5][6][7][8] The kāṣāya, also called jiāshā (Chinese: 袈裟), consists of three pieces, with the saṃghāti as the most visible part of the buddhist attire.
