Etymology

Romanian borrowed "vestiar" from French "vestiaire" in the modern era, part of a wave of French loanwords that shaped Romanian civic and social vocabulary. The French word traces to Latin "vestiarium", a place for storing clothes, built on "vestis" (clothing, garment). The same Latin root gives English "vest" and Italian "vestiario".
