Falls for light garments (9)

I believe the answer is:

landslips

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'falls' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to natural events as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'light garments' is the wordplay.
'light' becomes 'land' (light can mean to settle or land).
'garments' becomes 'slips' (slip is a kind of garment).
'land'+'slips'='LANDSLIPS'

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for landslips that I've seen is " Disasters - naturally".)
