罩衫, 纱笼
a loose-fitting garment, usually made of lightweight fabric, that is worn over swimwear or other clothing to conceal or protect the skin from the sun
A cover-up is a type of clothing item that is used to conceal or cover the body, typically worn over swimwear or other revealing garments. Cover-ups are designed to be lightweight, comfortable, and easy to slip on and off, making them ideal for use at the beach or pool. They come in a variety of styles, including dresses, kaftans, tunics, sarongs, and more, and are made from a range of materials, such as cotton, silk, rayon, and chiffon. Cover-ups offer an effortless way to transition from the beach or pool to other activities, such as dining out or shopping, without having to change clothes.
