Description:

The Greek himation became the basis of the toga. The long piece of toga fabric was cut into rectangle or semicircle. It was then wrapped around the body, always exposing the right arm and usually covering the left arm. Different colors would identify your occupation and only the emperor could wear purple. A tunic was worn underneath the toga Many men wore gold rings and bracelets Women wore a stola, a long, belted robe similar to the Greek Chiton. Over the stola a wrap called a palla was worn.
