Ancient Roman Fashion: Was This Peak?

 BY C STONE | THE SUPER HOT ||| FASHION EDITORIAL

Sometimes we learn a lot by looking at the past. Ancient Romans, back in the day, looked like the people in these pictures. Above, a shot from HBO's Rome series. Below, an image taken from a website showing a women wearing a traditional outfit. 

I'll use my of ROME's images because I couldn't find anything good enough to showcase.

Depending on how rich you were, and if you were a slave, your fashion choices were quite stark. Remember, this was the ancient times when people were literally thrown to wild animals. It was pretty brutal back then, apparently.

 Slaves wore almost next to nothing or plain outfits. If you were rich, the sky was the limit.

Men wore colorful tunics or multi-layered gowns. It must have been hot as hell back in the ancient Roman times.

Red, the color of power in Rome, along with the gold highlights. Massive gold chains, almost appearing like rappers of the 2000's, were common. 

The more powerful you were, the stranger you dressed. Above, an actress portraying Cleopatra from HBO's ROME can be seen wearing gold with gold accessories. 

And above, the fancy crown with gold weaves in the hair. There's something spectacular about having gold in your hair. She looks fantastic.
