Chiton Picture shows how fabric was folded and pinned (left) and how it was belted (right).
Female Chiton Pinned once on each side. Belted below the breast.
Male Chiton Usually older men and wealthier men wore long Chitons.
Male Chiton Shorter length worn by working class men, and younger, more active men.
Himation Over RIGHT shoulder. This picture is mirror image.
Himation LONG rectangle of fabric.
Female Himation Same rectangle of fabric just used differently. May not be able to do this with mask.
Male Himation Can get tucked into belt before wrapping to keep it in place.
Chlamys Pinned at LEFT shoulder. This picture is mirror image.
Chlamys Used by soldiers, working class, and younger men
Cothurnis No pictures/dipictions of the platform shoes, probably because they were only used as costume pieces. Attach platform to typical shoe from the period.
Cothurnis Platforms can be made from wood, styrofoam, cardboard, etc.
Complete Costume This image seems to be a mirror image of the appropriate way to wear the himation and clamys. Clamys = LEFT shoulder Himation = RIGHT shoulder
Complete Costume Homemade. Himation on correct shoulder.
Armor Depended on financial status: Upper class had metal breastplates, lower class had multiple layers of linen that were glued together.
Helmets If you could afford one. Helmet can be worked into the mask as an onkus.
Military Men Do not plan on javelins or shields because you will need to use you hands to gesture. Swords slung over the shoulder are okay.
Women’s Hairsyles Can be worked into the mask as an onkus.
