Any part of an outfit that floats independently from the rest of the clothing. Done almost entirely for Rule of Cool, as there is little practical purpose for this. Sometimes this is justified by magic or Applied Phlebotinum, but even when it's not, this trope usually appears in fantastic or futuristic settings. In Renaissance art depicting Classical Mythology, 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 deities (China, Japan, Korea), especially goddesses, tend to have 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. A Holy Halo counts as this, when depicted as a floating circlet. Compare Impossibly Cool Clothes (which can even overlap with this) and Power Floats (which usually does). Not to be confused with clothing that gives the wearer anti-gravity abilities, that would be Clothes Make the Superman. |

Warcraft: Magical vests (and chains) worn by Kel'thuzad. Kael'thas has three green orbs floating around him called Verdant Spheres and World of Warcraft players can loot one for themselves after beating him. As well as some of the armor pieces characters can wear in World of Warcraft. One example is the Poison Protocol Pauldrons, which seem to be three straps of leather surrounding an orb of blue fire on either shoulder.
