what is the name of a dress screen where women stand behind and change?

does it have a name? i can't find it and would appreciate your help.

:rose:
 
as far as i can tell, it doesn't appear to have a specific name
 
I know it has a name in Dutch and French (as I am speaking those two languages better than English), so I suppose it must have a name in English too, although I have no clue what it is.

It's called a dressing screen.
 
Eve is right, but there's also shoji screens which are the same thing with rice paper.
 
The 3 panel screens can be used as dressing screens or room dividers. Shoji is one type of screen.
Or are you thinking of one those 1 panel dressing screens like you see in old movies, WSO?
 
they come in concertina type frames... i was thinking about the ones in the movies...

i was sure there was a single name for them. i could be wrong though.
 
dressing screen
changing screen
room divider :)

Shoji is the Japanese version of the same thing
But I haven't had enough caffiene this morning
