In general terms:

  1. abito (used more in formal situations) = suit
  2. abito da…
    • sera = night dress
    • sposa = wedding dress
  3. vestito (used more in colloquial situations) = dress
  4. i vestiti = clothes

Please notice that there is a difference between:

  • abito = suit
  • abito = I live (in _): abito a Milano
