What is with wearing a miniskirt?
– The male fashion in ancient Rome was to show the legs and arms, as well as layers of big, billowy clothing (as in the Toga). It stems from the Etruscan and Greek predecessors of Romans. Not only does the Tunic provide good, comfortable cover, it gives excellent freedom of movement for the legs. The Roman Military fashion was to wear the tunic high, above the knees, compared to Civilian fashion. It is just the same as wearing shorts and a T-shirt [in the summer] compared to long sleeves and long pants. – By the 200’s AD, Roman soldiers’ fashions changed, incorporating long sleeved tunics with decorated accents, and long pants, the shoes / boots changes as well.
