在美国英语中，“gown”和“robe”这两个词有一些不同之处。
“Gown”通常指的是女性穿的正式礼服，比如晚礼服、毕业礼服或者婚纱。这种服装通常比较华丽，适合正式场合穿着。例如，参加舞会时女性可能会穿着一条漂亮的晚礼服。
而“robe”则更多指的是一种宽松的长袍，通常用于家居穿着或者特定场合，比如法官穿的法官袍、学位授予仪式上穿的学位袍等。例如，一些人在家里可能会穿着一件舒适的睡袍。
总的来说，“gown”更强调服装的正式和华丽，而“robe”更多指的是一种宽松的长袍，用途更广泛。

There are many types of both gowns and robes, and a few of them may be indistinguishable from each other.
Gowns are long, formal women's dresses. They are typically made out of luxurious fabrics and they may have embellishments. A traditional wedding dress is a type of gown.
A robe is more gender-neutral. It must wrap around your body in some way. and is usually either left open to show the clothes underneath or tied with some kind of sash or belt whereas gowns have closures like eyes and teeth, buttons, or zippers. Robes can be any length that's at least mid-thigh. They can be formal or not and also associated with religious figures like Catholic priests and fantasy ones like wizards. A kimono is a type of robe.
