* ''Myth/ChineseMythology: ''Some deities and immortals sport floating sash-like garments as a symbol of their divinity or immense spiritual power, a motif that was carried over into Myth/JapaneseMythology -- where the raiment is called ''hagoromo'' (translated to "feather robe") -- and Myth/KoreanMythology. Some narratives like the Japanese ''Literature/TheTaleOfTheBambooCutter'' hold that the garment grants the person who wears it supernatural powers, and if removed they will be reduced to a mortal existence.

In Renaissance art depicting Myth/ClassicalMythology, the gods would likely wear nothing but their floating capes and sashes to showcase their divinity, yet also showcasing a bit of modesty. Far East Asian mythology (China, Japan, Korea) one trait the gods have, which is mostly associated with female gods, is the ability to defy gravity. This is reflected in art, where you'll see the gods have flowing hair and stoles (called ''hagoromo'') that float in the air.
