What types of fashion was worn by the wealthy Romans?

The wealthy Romans tended to wear clothes that were made of wool or linen. This usually consisted of things like togas and robe like apparel for both men and women.


What kind of fabric were togas made out of?

Togas were typically made from wool, which was a common fabric in ancient Rome due to its availability and warmth. Wealthier individuals might also wear togas made from finer materials like silk or cotton. The wool used for togas was often dyed in various colors, although the traditional toga was usually white, symbolizing purity and citizenship.


Did plebeians wear togas?

The toga was a Roman dress form. Greeks would wear them only if they were given the privilege of being a Roman citizen, which was comparatively rare.While the Romans greatly admired Greek culture, they generally held the Greeks in contempt as easy-beats and a source of slaves. Also, as the Greeks were already organised into city-states, they were citizens of them and consequently had a stable form of government, unlike the peoples of Spain, Gaul and Britain who were tribal and were given Roman citizenship fairly liberally. For a Greek to have Roman citizenship, he would have had to have rendered signal service to a powerful Roman patron (or have inherited it from an ancestor who had rendered such service).


What clothes did rich Romans wear?

Additionally, they sometimes wore cloaks, like the pallium, for added elegance and warmth.
