cloak
Shoulder-draped garment
A cloak is a loose outer garment without sleeves, fastened at the neck and hanging from the shoulders—the kind worn in medieval times or fantasy settings.
The word extends to anything that conceals or covers: a cloak of secrecy, under the cloak of darkness.
To cloak something is to hide or disguise it: The organization cloaked its true purpose in charitable language.
