Dress
garment for women, children, or infants consisting of a bodice and skirt made in one or more pieces
A dress is one of the basic styles of female clothing. It is a garment of a skirt (bottom half) with an attached bodice (top half). The colouring and style of the dress gives the effect of a one-piece garment. A dress is also known as a frock or a gown. In Europe and the Americas, dresses are worn by females of all ages as an alternative to a separate skirt and blouse or trousers.

Versions of the dress are used in various activities, here ballroom dancing. Victor Fung and Anna Mikhed dancing a tango in 2006.
There are many types of dresses. A dress is usually worn at formal occasions, such as a wedding or a dance. It is also worn in the summer to keep cool. Younger females tend to prefer shorter skirts than older females.[1]
