The Old French word “warderobe” or “garderobe” meant a room where the clothing (robes) of the rich or powerful were locked for safety. Also stored in the “warderobe” were things a modern reader might expect to have locked up, like silverware or artwork.
Over time, the wardrobe became a piece of furniture instead of a separate room. But the name stuck around.
