According to the clues provided by fragmented statues and textual references, both Greek and Roman clothing were largely dictated by the materials and methods of textile production.
The fabric was folded, wrapped, clamped, strapped or, less often, sewn around the body.
Greek and Roman costumes have many points in common: both, for example, exhibit an abundance of plugs and folds. The Roman costume has two main combinations of pieces: tunica and toga for men, and tunika and pall for women. The tunic, or tunica, was the layer used most closely to the body, classified as the inductus.
