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.
