Random information on the term “Draped garment”:

An uttariya (uttarīya) is a loose piece of upper body clothing. It is a single piece of cloth that falls from the back of the neck to curl around both arms and could also drape the top half of the body. An Uttariya is similar to a veil, a long scarf and shawl.

The word uttarīya is from Sanskrit. Uttariya is the combination of Uttar (उत्तर) and suffix īya (ईय). Uttariya in vedas comprehends various loose cloths worn for upper body such as upavasana, parayanahana and adhivasa, varhatika and varnaka, uttarsangha samvyana.

Uttariya was a garment for upper body in vedic periods. (1500 and 500 BCE.) The garments worn in the Vedic period mainly included a single cloth wrapped around the whole body and draped over the shoulder. People used to wear the lower garment called paridhana which was pleated in front and used to tie with a belt called mekhala and an upper garment called Uttariya (covered like a shawl) which they used to remove during summers. “Orthodox males and females usually wore the uttariya by throwing it over the left shoulder only, in the style called upavita”. There was another garment called pravara that they used to wear in cold. This was the general garb of both the sexes but the difference existed only in size of cloth and manner of wearing. Sometimes the poor people used to wear the lower garment as a loincloth only while the wealthy would wear it extending to the feet as a sign of prestige.
