dolmans
Capelike military garments
Dolmans are loose garments with wide sleeves, or sleeves cut in one piece with the body of the garment.
The term applies both to a type of hussar's jacket worn slung over one shoulder and to women's capes or coats with dolman sleeves: The vintage shop had several 1940s dolmans in excellent condition.
