der Rock, pl. Röcke (skirt) was originally a garment worn by both sexes.
Until the middle of the 20th century the term Rock for a garment was still used by elderly Germans for a man's coat.
Today in Germany the term Rock refers to a woman's garment that hangs from the waist down and covers all or part of the legs. In Switzerland it's also a synonym for das Kleid (dress).
