Fashion and clothing in ancient civilisations
Clothing in Ancient Egypt
The Egyptians really cared how they looked and
they always tried to be fancy. They took time to
keep them selves and their clothes clean and
neatly arranged. Most of their clothes was made
from linen. The Egyptians were famous for their
weaving. Workers wore simple loin clothes or
they worked naked. Wealthier people wore wide
garments that were wrapped and tied around
them. The priest wore leopard skin robes. If you
were rich or poor you would wear jewelry.
Hair and Makeup in Ancient Egypt
Both Egyptian men and women shaved their heads and wore wigs.
Their wigs were made of wool or human hair. Young girls had long hair
and boys had shaved heads. Older men and women had shaved heads
and wore wigs. On special occasions women wore curled wigs. Both
men and women wore jewelry and both rich and poor wore jewelry.
They wore rings, necklaces and ear studs. Both men and women wore
                                        makeup. They used colored
                                        minerals mixed with oil to make
                                        their makeup. They also
                                        coloured their hair and nails
                                        with henna.
Clothing in Ancient Rome
In ancient Rome they generally wore tunics, togas, stolas, brooches, and
breeches. Wool was the most commonly used fibre. Silk and cotton was
imported from China and India. Silk was rare and expensive so only the
rich people wore it. They used leather to keep their
soldiers warm when traveling. They wore animal skins
over their armour with the head sitting on their head.
Women wore tunics or a stola with a palla over the
stola. Girls wore short tunics at home and long tunics
outside. The dress code was different for different
genders, or languages, it was also different if you were
rich or poor. Both genders rich or poor wore togas.
They wore sandals and boots mad out of leather and
sometime wood.
Hair and Makeup in Ancient Rome
In ancient Rome women could do what ever they
wanted to do with their hair. They could colour it,
curl it or chop it off if they wanted to. Hair curlers,
pins, and hair net were commonly used. They used
pins made out of wood, ivory, crystal, silver or painted
bone. They curled their hair by rolling their hair on a
                                 cylinder and putting
                                 another cylinder on top
                                 of it and heating it with fire. They colored
                                 their nail with a product they imported from
                                 India that came from a Indian insect.
                                 Perfume was used very often that it was
                                 considered strange if they didn’t wear it.
Clothing in Ancient Greece
In ancient Greece men often wore little or
no clothes. For sports and working in hot
places they did not wear clothing. When
women were around they wore clothes. If
you were a women you were expected to
wear clothes. Rich and noble women wore
veil around their heads and lower face.
Greek clothes was simple and required
little stitching. They created styles by folding and pins. You could tell
the fabric was higher quality because it would be colorful or it would have
embroidered edges. They were normally barefoot some men wore sandals
or boots in the winter.
Hair and Makeup in Ancient Greece
In ancient Greece women wore there hair knots, braids, curls, down, or in
hats or scarves. Men wore hats and cared for their beards by combing,
oiling, and trimming them. They seriously cared about their skin tone and
wanted to be pale. The upper class had people follow them holding a sun
shade over them. They showed off their skin tone by wearing gold
bracelets. Blonde hair was highly prized and people without blonde hair
used a wash to make it appear blonde. They wore hair nets made of gold
thread.
Clothing in Ancient Mesopotamia
In ancient Mesopotamia they learned how to pound wool and weave it
into cloth. Men wore loin clothes that provide little coverage. Later they
started wearing longer skirts that went to their knees that was held up by
a belt. Women wore a shawl that covered their
bodies. Later they started wearing sewn clothing
with tiers and fringes. Kings and military officers
wore woolen cloaks dyed blue, red, purple, or
white. Women wore V-neck sleeved dresses. They
made clothes from natural resources that was
available to them such as flax and wool.
Hair and Makeup in Ancient Mesopotamia
Men usually had shaved heads or had long hair and beards. Girls had
long hair and normally braided it or wrapped it around and held it in
place with a scarf or hair net. They put gold hair nets and pins in their
hair. They also put flowers in their hair. Men wore helmets and were
obsessed with having long wavy beards that curled at the end. Priests,
doctors, and slaves had to wear distinctive hairstyle. Grey
hair was treated with lotion and incantations .
Clothing in Modern Canada
In Canada we wear so many different kinds of clothes I cant fit it on this
page or the next. Most men wear pants and a t-shirt everyday, and most
women wear either a dress, a shirt with a skirt, or a pants and a shirt. Girls
care much more about what they look like than boys. Some of the fabrics
we use now are jean, polyester and cotton. Clothing now is nothing like
clothing in the ancient civilizations, boys no longer wear skirts. Unlike the
ancient civilizations practically everything is expensive.
Hair and Makeup in Modern Canada
People in Canada wear their hair in many different ways. Girls do much
more with it than boys. Boys don’t usually do anything with their hair.
Girls do a lot with their hair like they curl it, straighten it, or put in it
ponytails or buns or braids. So girls do their hair like in the ancient
civilisations but not as fancy. People but a lot of things in their hair, like
girls put hairband, hair elastics, hair pins, and clips and they put
chemicals such as hairspray in it. Boys do not put make up on but most
girls put on a lot of it.
