Overskirt
An overskirt is a type of women's short skirt which is draped over another garment, such as a skirt, breeches, or trousers. Although peplum is often used as another term for overskirt, it should not be confused with the peplos or "peplum dress", which was worn in ancient Greece.

overskirt
An overskirt is a type of garment that is worn over a skirt, dress, or other lower body garments. It is often a separate piece from the underlying garment and may be of a different length, style, or color. The overskirt can be shorter than the main skirt to show off the design or trim of the latter, or reach the ground for a smoother silhouette. It was a popular fashion trend in various eras, particularly in the Victorian period.
