1. A loose sleeveless coat worn over outer garments; a cloak: “I wore a mantle on my dress to protect myself from the biting cold.”
2. Something that covers, envelops, or conceals: “A thick mantle of smoke covers the sky when the farmers burn the stubble of their crops which cause many diseases related with lungs.”
