Metal plate beneath Linothorakes or Spolades

The decoration on the garments is really nice. To be honest Paul, I thought you were correct, but Giannis has convinced me it is a chiton.
The way they are pinned down is visually very similar to the T&Y.. maybe something to look into?
Do you have a picture of the Skythian archer that is poking on the side of the vase? Im collecting Greek depictions of them.....

I found this image interesting. It shows 3 figures wearing the T&Y, but only two of them are white.
