adultwear

Clothing for grownups

Adultwear is clothing designed and sized for adults, as distinct from children's clothing.

The term appears mainly in retail contexts to categorize merchandise: The adultwear section is on the second floor.

Despite the word adult's association with sexual content, adultwear typically refers to ordinary clothing, not lingerie or fetishwear.
