The history of European fashion reaches as far back as the history of literature and art. Luxurious fabrics and the enjoyment of beautiful clothing appear even in the oldest figural depictions and in the works of Homer. In ancient Greek society, the aesthetic enthusiasm for clothing and fashion is related to the enjoyment of beautiful forms and human beauty. Textiles and clothing have served as a means of cultural and gender differentiation for many centuries, and the period from 750 to 450 BC is of particular interest. In this book, the authors take an approach to the study of fashion in the early Greek world that combines the perspectives of social history, art history/archaeology, and the history of aesthetics.
