What influences does ancient Greece have on us today?

Answer 1

Men wore Chlamys which are a large rectangle of fabric worn over the head and belted at the waist, it was a standard military garment.

Most of the bling went into the clasps and ornaments that held the garments together.

The privileged class constantly would strive to display their wealth in their clothing and their lifestyle, always aware that their peers were doing the same.

( Chlamys ) were the norm as an outer garment, but many accessories were added to improve its looks and taste.

Undergarments, called Peplos, and Chitons differed for men and women, but made up what most people wore daily.

The Chiton is the garment most depicted in the statues of the time worn by the women.

Although most modern photos and movies depict the ancient Greeks as wearing all white it is believed that they favored bright colors much more, there is evidence that the Greek statues that we all know were painted in these bright colors when they were made. soldiers wore armor which also had it's showier versions.
