 Habiliment, from Middle French abillement, is a bit old-fashioned and is
often used to describe complex, multi-pieced outfits like those of
medieval times. For instance, a full suit of armor-which might include a
helmet, gorget, pallette, brassard, skirt of tasses, tuille, gauntlet,
cuisse, jambeau, and solleret, along with other pieces and plates-can
be considered the habiliments of a knight. Nowadays, "habiliment,"
which is usually used in its plural form, is also fitting for the dress of an
occupation, such as the different vestments of a priest, or for clothes,
such as elegant formal wear, worn on special occasions. When
"habiliment" is used for plain old "clothes," it is more than likely for
jocular or poetic effect.
