moo-moo
Baby's cattle sound
A moo-moo (also muumuu) is a loose, flowing dress that hangs from the shoulders, originally from Hawaii.
The garment requires no fitting and accommodates any body shape, making it comfortable housewear: She spent Sunday in her moo-moo watching TV.
The word comes from Hawaiian, where it originally meant "cut off"—referring to the dress's lack of a yoke.
