Himation or Toga
Around 600 B.C. the Himation became a popular garment for Greek men and women, and was later worn by Roman males as a Toga.
Wearing the toga was a mark of honor for a man. In the early years of
Rome, women had apparently also worn togas. Over the years fashion and
laws changed such that around 500 B.C. the only women who wore togas as the main garment were
common prostitutes. For women, it became a mark of shame and disgrace.
It is possible to wear this item in many different and interesting ways, as you'll find when you wear one.
It can be worn over a Roman Tunic, Chiton, Colobium, or
Kolobas.
Our Himations / Togas are approximatly 15 feet long and 60 inches wide.
Made from a lightweight polycotton, we offer many colors of Himations/Togas.
For a Biblical costume, wear a Ritual Robe wrapped with a Toga, as in the photos on the left.
