Ancient Greece Vs Today's Clothing

Ancient Greece is a very famous country that is known for its unique fashion styles. Years ago, ancient Greeks did not care about the type of clothing they were wearing. Men and women wore similar things. Not knowing that a few hundred years later researchers would argue over if their clothes were better than today's or worse than today's clothing. The Greeks had unique ways of making clothing but it does not compare to today's clothing. In Ancient Greece there were many different fashion styles for men and women, they are very different from today's vogue fashion, making fashion today better than what it used to be. Many years ago, in Ancient Greece families did not have enough money to clothe their selves and children. The families decided
These items were handmade in the homes which means most of the clothing items were not very durable. The pieces of clothing that was given to the people to wear were large squares that they draped around their bodies and tied together with a rope. In today's fashion, we have clothing that we are able to put on and fasten together with a zipper or a button. The clothing material today is already made in factories that make it much more durable than Ancient Greeces' handmade clothing ("Ancient"). Today we also have different types of material that are for different seasons to help keep people comfortable while working or going throughout their day. Today's clothing stores make a good amount of profit off of clothing that they sell which has created many jobs for people. While in Ancient Greece there were no clothing stores except for the places to buy fabrics to spin together creating very few jobs ("Metropolitan"). The death rate for children in Ancient Greece is higher than it is now, this could be because of the lack of clothing they had. The children did not have any clothing to wear so in the winter it was common for them to get frostbite and different types of sicknesses easier. Today's children are able to wear clothes that keep them warm during the winter and keep them cool during the summer. Women wore jewelry to show off their wealth to others which could usually put others down and make them feel worthless. Women today don't usually wear jewelry to show off wealth they usually wear it to make their outfit complete
