Meaning:
A wardrobe is a piece of furniture used to store clothes, shoes, and other personal belongings. It typically has doors, drawers, and shelves to organize and protect its contents.
Origin:
The term "garderobe" has its roots in medieval French, where it referred to a small room or closet where clothes and other valuables were kept. In the 14th century, "garderobe" began to be used specifically for the piece of furniture designed to store clothing.
Over time, the word was adopted into English and came to refer to the freestanding cabinet we know today. Wardrobes became increasingly common in homes during the Renaissance and Baroque periods, as furniture design and craftsmanship became more elaborate.
