It consisted of the tunica, the dalmatic, the cloak and shoes or boots. The shapes of the garments were consistent throughout the classes, only the quality of the fabric and trimming distinguished them. Tunica: The tunica was the basic article of clothing in Byzantium. For the lower classes, it was the everyday working garment. For the upper classes, it was the underlayment for some of the richest clothing in history. The tunica was a derivation of the ancient Roman tunica talaris, or tunic to the ankles. They were trim in the sleeve and mostly loose in the body. The more active wearer would gird it up to the shins or knees with a thin belt. The sleeve length Read More Go to Site clothing.html Votes:0 Pilgrim Clothing The Plimoth Plantation Museum also has a web page discussing Pilgrim clothing , and it includes a couple illustrated photographs. WOMEN: A woman's undergarment was a long off-white short-sleeved, linen shirt, resembling a modern-day woman's nightshirt except that it was ribbon-tied at the collar and cuffs and fastened in the front. One or more ankle-length, waist-fastened petticoats were worn. The dress, or gown, consisted of two parts, a bodice and a skirt--sometimes the sleeves were a separate part as well, being tied to the bodice. The bodice or the skirt could be the same or different colors, and were made of wool. The bodice buttoned all the way down the front. The skirt was ankle-length and gathered at the waist. A long-sleeve fitted waistcoat was often worn over the Read More Go to Site COSTUME COLLECTION Votes:0 THE CTAHR HISTORIC COSTUME COLLECTION Textiles and Clothing Program College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources University of Hawai'i at Manoa Carol d'Angelo, Curator The Costume Collection 2515 Campus Road Honolulu, HI 96822 (808) 956-2234 Email: Carol D'Angelo The CTAHR Collection Exhibitions Asian Sub-Collection Hawaiian Sub-Collection Ethnic Sub-Collection Western Sub-Collection The Department Last updated 1.08.02 FastCounter by bCentral Read More Go to Site DHM, Everyday Life Culture II, Textiles Votes:0 Collection Everyday Life Culture II Textiles and Clothing Responsible: Regine Falkenberg The collection of Clothing and Textiles consists of approximately 8,000 pieces of non-military clothing dating from the middle of the 18th century up to the present.

The mod boy of today would hardly recognize his counterpart of 100 years ago who might have found himself outfitted in a delicate lace collar and fancy velvet knee pants, sailor suits, or kilts. Parents at the time dressed formally and insisted that their children also dress smartly to reflect well on themselves and to demonstrate their social status. Gradually styles changed in the mid 20th Century to more realistic short pants and knickers before the modern incarnation of sneakers, casual baggy jeans and sweatshirts.

There would be no doubt in ones mind about picking out the nobility in any given crowd. Clothing was a direct indication of wealth, much in the manner of imported suits in the present. The cost of clothing was related to the type of fabric and (in the days before synthetic dyes) the color. Purple dye was extracted by crushing thousands of tiny sea snails; similarly, crimson dye was obtained by crushing a certain type of beetle. Processed fabrics such as velvet or corduroy were costly, as were satins and other fine weaves.

It's a reflection of our times, a barometer of society. To a lesser degree, fashion has also been art, big business, necessity, fantasy, masterpiece, nuisance. The only sure characteristic of fashion today is that it's for everyone. An extremely efficient ready-to-wear industry and media-saturated world make the newest looks almost instantly accessible. Even if one can't afford the $2,000 Donna Karan dress, one can probably buy a $29 knock-off weeks after it first hit the catwalk. It wasn't always this way. In the late 19th century, fashion was the domain of the wealthy and cosseted.

The tunica served as the basic undergarment of both men and women, or the only garment for the working class and poor. The main over-garment worn both by men and women is called the dalmatica .
