Morphology

garmented = garment (semi-transparent) = garment + ed

Formed with a clear relation to 'garment' + '-ed' yielding 'dressed', but the verbal/adjectival base is rare and literary, reducing full transparency for learners.

Etymology

Garmented comes from the noun garment, which means 'clothing', and the ending -ed turns it into 'dressed'. So, to be garmented is to be clothed, often in fine or special clothes.
