History
OF CLOTHES
Ancient clothing
Egyptian women wore cotton or linen dresses with shoulder straps/, they were originally plain but eventually became more elaborate with different designs and colours. Greek women wore a style of dress/tunic called a peplos tied at the waist before chitons and himations were introduced. Roman women wore long dresses called stolas that were dyed different colours or pallas which were long dresses.
Middle ages clothing
In the 12th and 13th centuries clothes were basi c, with men wearing tunics, shorts and tights and women wearing ‘dressing-gown like’ garments. They would wear long tunics and gowns over it while holding it up with belts around their waist. Clothes were generally made of wool; however, in the 14th century, laws were made highlighting the materials different classes could wear, so people couldn't ‘dress above’ themselves. Despite this, most people ignored the law and clothes became much more elaborate. People wore elaborate hats and mens would wear shoes known as crakows. Still, poor people wore simple, ‘work like’ clothes with wooden clogs.
16th Century Clothing
Tudor lords valued fashion. Their attire was really ornate. Clothing for the impoverished needed to be durable and functional. Wool was worn by every class. Its level of excellence, meanwhile, fluctuated. The wealthy wore wool of superior grade. Poor people wore rough wool. Pants and shirts were made of linen. However, cotton and silk clothing were only accessible to the wealthy. With silk, gold, or silver thread, wealthy Tudors also embroidered their clothing. Rich women in the 16th century wore silk stockings.
17th Century Clothing
At the beginning of the 17th century, fashion was quite formal with men wearing starched collars and women wearing frames made of wood under their dresses. Throughout the century fashion changed slightly with men wearing knee length garments called breeches and men wearing linen shirts. In the late 17th century men wore waistcoats and suits. They were generally clean–shaven and wore wigs. Women wore more ‘dressing-gown like’ garments called a shift with long dresses over them. They also often wore two skirts - an upper and lower skirt. People also wore black patches on their faces such as little stars or crescent moons.
