  2. Women Fewer restrictions by laws, customs and traditions existed on the dress of women. The basic female garment was the stola. • Long tunic reaching to the ground. If could have long or short sleeves, or be entirely sleeveless. • The stola was generally worn over another long tunic, the tunica interior. • The stola was shorter than the tunica interior in order to show the layers of garment. This layering was a display of wealth and status. Another display of wealth could be a wide ornamental border (instita) on the lower hem of either the under tunic or the stola. Silk clothing was available to the rich, but was only used for female clothing
