The '''flowing dress''' is a powerful robe in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] series, debuting in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'' as a special piece of equipment. It offers amazing protection to the wearer against fire and ice attacks and tends to be one of the most protective pieces of body armor for spellcasters. Despite its name, it can be equipped by both male and female characters in most cases.

==Characteristics==
The appearance of the flowing dress has not changed much over the years. In the majority of its appearances, the robe looks like a traditional Japanese kimono made out of sky blue cloth with the hemline of the robe blending into what appears to be flowing water or mist. It is worn with either a blue or purple sash tied around the waist, along with another cloth sash attached to a pair of golden wristbands or carried around the wearer's wrists. However, in some appearances such as ''Dragon Quest X'', the flowing dress looks closer to a Western-styled robe with a hood and has wave-like decorations around the sleeves and hemline. As footwear is usually part of the "armor" equipment slot barring accessories, it is also typically depicted as being accompanied by a pair of light sandals, yellow or orange (in a way suggestive of leather), secured by straps on the ankle, arch and around the big toe. More recent depictions feature a pair of anklets on the left foot.

Although the flowing dress debuted as a unique and special piece of equipment in ''Dragon Quest II'', later games in the series reduced its importance by making it purchasable in armor shops in later sections of the game or by allowing players themselves to craft it on their own. It is still a very protective in its own right, but its status as the most protective robe has been replaced by other pieces of equipment.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest II]]''===
The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +35 in the original, and +65 in all other versions. It protects against fire attacks by 50% and damage caused by swamps and magma tiles. It can be worn by all three characters. The robe is obtained by giving the [[Subtle Shuttle]] and [[Celestial Skein]] to [[Don Calico]] in [[Slewse]]. The wizened weaver will not finish his work until the player saves their game and begins again.

In the original version, multiple copies of the dress can be obtained by gathering the skein and shuttle again. This will only work once, however. Additionally, because Don Calico wove it specifically for her, the dress cannot be received if the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]'s inventory is full.

===''[[Dragon Quest III]]''===
The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +50 (+40 in the original) and can be worn by [[Mage|Magi]], as well as [[Sage]]s in all remake versions of the game. It reduces spell and breath damage by 1/3rd in all versions, and can be purchased in [[Kol]] for 12,500 gold and sold for 9,375.

===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +43 and reduces [[frizz]], [[sizz]], [[bang]], and fire and ice breath damage by 1/3rd. It can be worn by [[Borya]], [[Maya]] & [[Meena]]. [[Orifiela]] has this among her equipment.
It can be purchased for 15,000 gold and sold for 11,250. If appraised by Torneko, he mentions that it goes all the way back to the time of the faeries. He also states that it is spun on a holy loom with threads of rain and dew, referencing its method of acquisition in ''Dragon Quest II''.

===''[[Dragon Quest V]]''===
The flowing dress has a defense bonus of +55, and protects against frizz, sizz, and fire breath by 25. It can be bought in [[Faerie Lea]] for 14,800 gold and sold for 11,100 gold. [[Bianca]], [[Nera]], [[Debora]], and the [[Hero's Daughter (Dragon Quest V)|Hero's daughter]] can equip it, along with many of the monster allies.

===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
