how the Romans dressed
In Pompeii, the higher class men wore togas - which is a loose outer garment covering the whole body from the arm, and the poorer men and boys wore tunics - which is a loose outer garment covering only the body, not the arms.
All women wore the same thing, something called a stola - which is the same thing as a toga for men. Originally, women also wore togas but after the 2nd century BC, only men could wear togas and all women were expected to wear stolas.
