Clothing in ancient Egypt
Ancient Egyptian clothes refers to clothing worn in ancient Egypt from the end of the Neolithic period (prior to 3100 BC) to the collapse of the Ptolemaic dynasty with the death of Cleopatra VII in 30 BC. Egyptian clothing was filled with a variety of colors. Adorned with precious gems and jewels, the fashions of the Ancient Egyptians were made for not only beauty but also comfort. Egyptian fashion was created to keep cool while in the hot desert.〔(Ancient Egypt Fashion ). Ancient-egypt-online.com. Retrieved on 2012-05-05.〕
==Elements of Egyptian clothing==
In ancient Egypt, linen was by far the most common textile. It helped people to be comfortable in the subtropical heat.〔 Linen is made from the flax plant by spinning the fibers from the stem of the plant.〔(WOMEN'S CLOTHING AND FASHION IN ANCIENT EGYPT ). womenintheancientworld.com〕 Spinning, weaving and sewing were very important techniques for all Egyptian societies.〔 Plant dyes could be applied to clothing but the clothing was usually left in its natural color.〔 Wool was known, but considered impure. Only the wealthy wore animal fibers that were the object of taboos. They were used on occasion for overcoats, but were forbidden in temples and sanctuaries.
Peasants, workers and other people of modest condition often wore nothing, but the shenti (made of flax) was worn by all people. Slaves often worked naked.
The most common headdress was the khat or nemes, a striped cloth worn by men.
