Ferâce

A loose, full-length overcoat with wide, untapered sleeves, worn by both sexes. Men wore ferâces for warmth, while women wore them both for warmth and for modesty. Because women wore ferâces every time they went out in public, they had versions made of thinner cloth for the summer, as well as wool and fur-lined versions for the winter.
