armored dress
A dress adorned with combat armor, or an entire suit of armor stylized into a dress.
The armor can be light, such as just faulds or kusazuri, or it can heavy such as adding pauldrons, greaves, gauntlets, and/or other similar pieces. This ensemble does have elegance in mind, but its primary function is for battle rather than social engagements or festivities.
See armored skirt if only the skirt is armored, not the entire dress.
