Thanks Joze!
This group is definitely highly influenced by reconstruction like the one in following picture:

I found this description in one of my books;
Although the Etruscans adapted many elements of their clothing from the greeks and the orient, there are also many elements of local origin like a loin-cloth wrapped around in different forms during the oriental and archaic period....
...Many things were adapted from the greeks. While the heavy tunics made of wool and the long chitons of the early period have been replaced by the ionic chiton in the 6th century.It was shorter and often folded.
.. Also known is the custom of wearing different cloaks, most prominent was the, formed like a half circle, tebenna....

Found this on the site of a museum. As far as I translated its the outline of a remnant of a tebenna, found in a grave.
And this one again of the Tomba del Triclinio it says its a himation but i always tought that a himation was much bigger. So again I guess it is the etruscan cloak but maybe I am wrong.
