SUPER BASIC ROMAN CLOTHING (AKA OMG IT’S HOT) Romanasum.com/papers has much more info (this document is not intended to stand alone). Focused on lower / middle status Republican Rome since it’s one layer and easy. Domina Tullia Saturnina, JdL, GdS. 2/15/18 Length: Just above the knee for working people. Just below the knee for men. Mid-shin to ankle for ladies (higher status, more fabric). Color: White, red, yellow, blue, green, pink, teal… dark colors are for mourning. Avoid super-saturated modern dyes for accuracy if you care. Fabric: Linen or light wool is ideal. Cotton is traded from the 1 st cent CE. Belts: Woven tape or rope. Leather if you were / are a soldier. Tunica Recta (Unisex): NOTE: Republican Rome had status rules about clavi (stripes) for the tunica recta – in the Imperial period they became more of a fashion thing. T-Tunica (Unisex): Tube Tunica (Females): AKA Doric chiton. Note that Version 2 requires less fabric. A Peplos (all Greeks, virgin Romans*) has an extra flap, made by folding the top over before pinning. You can also use two pieces (front and back) or one wrapped around at the side.
