3rd Century Tunic
#5
I am continually struck by the graceful draping of tunics from Germany. My attempts to re-create this have resulted in mixed results. Linen works best, fine wool ok, and thick wool is hopeless. Also, the tunic dimensions discussed in Sumner's Roman Military Clothing I, just can't produce this effect. A narrower, sleeved tunic is necessary to reproduce this effect.
