Roman wool tunica

I technically don't need Roman garb, I don't wear it in the SCA, and I don't do Roman (or any) re-renactment. But I had this wonderful 100 % wool etamine that just cried out to be a rectangular tunica.

I wear a lot of modern versions of the tunica recta made from cotton in summer, and Injut love how the unshaped garment feels when I wear it .

This is the tunica matrona, though I have buttons instead of proper fibulae for the time being.

Next step is a stola, because I am a respectable married woman. Will also fix my hair and not wear socks 😉.

Make do and mend

 My beloved, trusted, linen hose, sewn over fifteen years ago are getting worn in places.

Last year I mended one, and now I mended the other one
