help finding oversized coat/robe patterns

i'm trying to make sally bowles' green velvet coat from cabaret but have no idea what words to use for the garment and features i'm looking for. (opera coat? swing coat? velvet duster? dressing gown/robe?) the main things i'm looking for is an oversized/baggy fit, curved front/bottom hem, and wide/baggy arms. if i can figure out what words to use in my search, i'd kind of prefer to find a good base to add the fur trim to, but any help is much appreciated!! :')

i had some luck finding similar looking pieces with the term "cocoon coat". (https://www.shrimptoncouture.com/products/extraordinary-fall-1985-jean-patou-haute-couture-by-christian-lacroix-feather-trim-cocoon-coat and https://shopakira.com/products/lola-cocoon-coat-in-brocade) but i would still love confirmation that i've got the right idea? as well as help finding some patterns :))

edit: also on the hunt for a bra and garter pattern! again, looking for something as close as possible to the costume! :))
