A dress is a garment consisting of a skirt combined with a top (usually of the same material) to make one item that covers a large part of the body. It may have long or short sleeves or be sleeveless; it usually covers the shoulders.
In modern western societies it is considered an exclusively female garment. It is therefore often preferred to trousers by transvestites and cross-dressers. Conversely, it may be avoided by butch females.
Like other garments, it can be made of fetish materials such as leather, rubber and PVC.
A dress with a very short skirt part is called a mini-dress.
