Clothing in ancient Greece refers to clothing starting from the Aegean bronze age (3000 BCE) to the Hellenistic period (31 BCE).[1] Clothing in ancient Greece included a wide variety of styles but primarily consisted of the chiton, peplos, himation, and chlamys.[2] Ancient Greek civilians typically wore two pieces of clothing draped about the body: an undergarment (χιτών : chitōn or πέπλος : péplos) and a cloak (ἱμάτιον : himátion or χλαμύς : chlamýs).[3] The people of ancient Greece had many factors (political, economic, social, and cultural) that determined what they wore and when they wore it.[2]

Clothes were quite simple, draped, loose-fitting and free-flowing.[4] Customarily, clothing was homemade and cut to various lengths of rectangular linen or wool fabric with minimal cutting or sewing, and secured with ornamental clasps or pins, and a belt, or girdle (ζώνη: zōnē).[4] Pieces were generally interchangeable between men and women.[5] However, women usually wore their robes to their ankles while men generally wore theirs to their knees depending on the occasion and circumstance.[4] Additionally, clothing often served many purposes than just being used as clothes such as bedding or a shroud.[6]

Textiles

Small fragments of textiles have been found from this period at archeological sites across Greece.[7] These found textiles, along with literary descriptions, artistic depictions, modern ethnography, and experimental archaeology, have led to a greater understanding of ancient Greek textiles.[4] Clothes in ancient Greece were mainly homemade or locally made.[1] All ancient Greek clothing was made out of natural fibers.[4] Linen was the most common fabric due to the hot climate which lasted most of the year.[4] On the rare occasion of colder weather, ancient Greeks wore wool.[4] Silk was also used for the production of clothing though for ceremonial purposes by the wealthy.[4] In Aristotle's The History of Animals, Aristotle talks about the collection of caterpillar cocoons to be used to create silk.[8]

In ancient Greece, textile manufacture was largely the responsibility of women. On this lekythos attributed to the Amasis painter, women are shown folding cloth, spinning wool into yarn, and weaving cloth on an upright loom.

Production process

In the production of textiles, upright warp-weighted loom were used to weave clothing in Ancient Greece.[9]

These looms had vertical threads or warps that were held down by loom weights.[9] The use of looms can be seen in Homer's Odyssey when Hermes comes across Calypso weaving on a loom.[10] Another example of the loom in Homer's Odyssey can be seen when Odysseus comes across Circe for the first time.[11] The use of looms can also be seen being depicted on ancient Greek pottery.[4]

Color and decoration

Clothing in ancient Greece has been found to be quite colorful with a wide variety of hues.[4] Colors found to be used include black, red, yellow, blue, green, and purple.[4] Yellow dyed clothing has been found to be associated with a woman's life cycle.[4] The elite typically wore purple as a sign of wealth and money as it was the most expensive dye due to the difficulty in acquiring it.[4] The ancient Greeks also embroidered designs into their clothes as a form of decoration.[7] The designs embroidered included representations of florals patterns and geometric patterns as well intricate scenes from Greek stories.[7] An example of this embroidery can be seen in Homer's Iliad where Helen is described as wearing a purple textile where she embroidered a scene of Trojans in battle.[12]

There was the proverbial phrase Θετταλικαὶ πτέρυγες, meaning Thessalian wings, because the Thessalian cloaks had a small flap in each side which resemble wings.[13]

Styles of clothing

The epiblema (ἐπίβλημα) was a general term for the outer clothing[14][15][16] also called ἀμφελόνη,[17] while the endyma (ἔνδυμα) was oftenest applied to the underclothing.[18]

Staple garments

Chiton

The chiton (plural: chitones) was a garment of light linen consisting of sleeves and long hemline.[2][6] It consisted of a wide, rectangular tube of material secured along the shoulders and lower arms by a series of fasteners.[19] The chiton was commonly worn by both men and women but the time period in which each did so depended.[1] Chitons typically fell to the ankles of the wearer, but shorter chitons were sometimes worn during vigorous activities by athletes, warriors, or slaves.[7]

Often excess fabric would be pulled over a girdle, or belt, which was fastened around the waist (see kolpos).[3] To deal with the bulk sometimes a strap, or anamaschalister was worn around the neck, brought under the armpits, crossed in the back, and tied in the front.[3] A himation, or cloak, could be worn over top of the chiton.[2]

Chlamys

The chlamys was a seamless rectangle of woolen material worn by men for military or hunting purposes.[3] It was worn as a cloak and fastened at the right shoulder with a brooch or button.[4]

The chlamys was typical Greek military attire from the 5th to the 3rd century BC.[20] It is thought that the chlamys could ward against light attacks in war.[2]

The chlamys went on to become popular in the Byzantine Empire by the high class and wealthy.[1]

Himation

The himation was a simple wool outer garment worn over the peplos or chiton by both men and women.[2][6] It consisted of heavy rectangular material, passing under the left arm and secured at the right shoulder.[7] The himation could also be worn over both shoulders.[4] Woman can be seen wearing the himation over their head in depictions of marriages and funerals in art.[4] Man and boys can also be seen depicted in art as wearing solely the himation with no other clothing.[1] A more voluminous himation was worn in cold weather.[3] The himation is referenced as being worn by Socrates in Plato's Republic.[21]

Peplos

The peplos was a rectangular piece of woolen garment that was pinned at both shoulders leaving the cloth open down one side which fell down around the body.[2][6] The top third of the cloth was folded over to create an over-fold.[4] A girdle or belt was used to fasten the folds at the waist and could be worn over or under the over-fold.[4] Variations of the peplos were worn by women in many periods such as the archaic, early classical, and classical periods of ancient Greece.[1]

Men and women sometimes wore triangular loincloths, called perizoma, as underwear.[3]

The ancient Greeks viewed nudity as an essential part of their identity that set them apart from other cultures.[53] Males went nude for athletic events such as the Olympics.[53] Male nudity could also be seen in Symposiums, a social event for elite men.[54] Male nudity could also be seen in rituals such as a boys coming of age ceremony.[54] Public female nudity was generally not accepted in ancient Greece,[53] though occasionally woman are nude in athletic events and religious rituals.[53] Women who were sex workers are commonly depicted as nude in ancient Greek art.[4] Partial nudity could also be seen through the linen fabric being expertly draped around the body, and the cloth could be slightly transparent.[7]

Men and women wore footwear such as sandals, shoes or boots, which were made most commonly out of leather.[4][7] At home, people typically went barefoot.[20] It was also common for philosophers such as Socrates to be barefoot as well.[7]

The Athenian general, Iphicrates, made soldiers' boots that were easy to untie and light. These boots were called afterwards, from his name, Iphicratids (Greek: Ἰφικρατίδες).[58][59]

The bodyguards of the Peisistratid tyrants were called wolf-feet (Λυκόποδες). According to one theory, they were called like this because they had their feet covered with wolf-skins, to prevent frostbites.[60]

Women and men wore different types of headgear.[2] Women could wear veils to preserve their modesty.[7] Men would wear hats for protection against the elements.[4] Both men and women also wore different types of headbands to pull their hair up or for decoration.[7]

Pileus and petasos were common hats for men in ancient Greece.[4] The pilues was a close-fitting cap which could have been made out of a variety of materials such as leather and wool.[4] While the petasos was a broad brimmed hat with an attached cord that hung down around the chin.[4]
