Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Robes is feminine in French. While it does derive from Old French and Germanic roots related to clothing, the feminine gender is not arbitrary. In French, many garment words are feminine, and "robe" follows this pattern. The word comes from a Germanic source (possibly related to Old High German "*rouba"), but the gender assignment was influenced by the natural tendency in Romance languages to assign feminine gender to many garment and clothing-related nouns. This is a productive pattern in French rather than a pure exception, though individual word genders must still be learned.
