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.

The flowing dress is a powerful robe in the Dragon Quest series, debuting in Dragon Quest II as a special piece of equipment. It offers very high protection against fire and ice attacks and is 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.

CharacteristicsEdit

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 It is still a very protective in its own right, but its status as the most protective robe has been replaced by other pieces of equipment.

AppearancesEdit

Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary LineEdit


GameDescription
 
A garment woven from celestial skein.[1]

The flowing dress has a defence 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 does not finish his work until the player saves and then restarts their game or rests at an inn in the remakes.

In the original version, a second copy of the dress can be obtained by gathering the skein and shuttle again. This only works the first time. Because Don Calico wove it specifically for her, the dress cannot be received if the Princess of Moonbrooke's inventory is full.

"Mizu" simply means "water", while hagoromo are special robes or kimono worn by celestial beings in Japanese mythology, such as angels or "tennin", heavenly spirits from Buddhist heaven. These robes were made out of materials like magical feathers and had special properties. If a tennin were to find themselves without their hagoromo, they would be unable to return to heaven.
