ladieswear
Dresses and blouses
Ladieswear refers to clothing designed and marketed for women, used especially in retail and fashion industry contexts to categorize merchandise.
Department stores typically organize their floors into sections like ladieswear, menswear, and childrenswear.
The term appears on signs, in catalogs, and in job titles such as ladieswear buyer.
British English tends to favor this single-word compound, while American usage often separates it as ladies' wear or women's wear.
