The '''dragon robe''' (ドラゴンローブ ''Doragonrōbu'') is a recurring robe in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series that was introduced in {{DQ6}}. It is a truly incredible garment made from a dragon's scales and bones. The robe usually protects the wearer against fire and ice attacks and is often the strongest protection in the game for those who cannot don heavy armour.

The modern dragon robe is a flowing, verdant garment with puffy white sleeves. The skull of a dragon adorns the chest area along with a shoulder and neck guard. The original design seen only in the official guide book for the Super Famicom version of ''VI'' depicts something akin to an armored dress, with a breast guard made of green dragon scales with green dragon skulls for pauldrons, set over a high-collar yellow gown with a red cloth wrapped around the hip.

Interestingly, vintage art for the robe depicts it as a bikini of sorts despite male characters being able to wear it. Considering the robe was redesigned as early as the remake of ''DQIII'', it is likely the feminine form was an oversight by [[Akira Toriyama|Toriyama]].
