Headword: Βαθυπέπλων

Of large [ones], so it logically follows.
Greek Original:
Βαθυπέπλων: μεγάλων, ἐκ τοῦ παρακολουθοῦντος.
Notes:
Same or very similar glossing (of this genitive plural headword) in Photius and elsewher. Hesychius and others more helpfully explain that it refers to women.
The headword adjective iself is characteristic of late epic (Nonnus, Quintus); see also epsilon 3574.
Keywords: clothing; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; epic; medicine; poetry; women
