Explanation:
Yoke: The yoke in clothing terms is a piece fitted around the neck or shoulders, or less commonly the hips, of a specific garment, and thus varying in shape. The rest of the garment hangs from it. The term is derived from the apparatus fitted around the neck of draft animals to enable them to pull wagons or plows.
