From the beginning of time, man has felt the need to dress to protect yourself from the elements. Our prehistoric ancestors were already using a "dress" made from the skins of animals they hunted, besides he covered his feet with the same skins, with a "shoe" to shelter and avoid injury.
also used different branches and leaves to manufacture fabrics, woven together that gave rise to different parts covered.
As the centuries went by, different civilizations adapted their clothing to the lifestyle they led, their geographical location, climate, customs, social class they belonged, for example, in ancient Egypt or Greece or classical Rome was not the same a peasant or a noble slave. Her attire defined the post he occupied in society.
Today I made some designs basing in Greece Classical
because I find it very interesting to watch as in ancient times were also concerned about their appearance, and this gave them personality. You could say that the "fashion" , began making their "first steps" in those remote times and almost in all spheres of life: culture, science, thought, including: Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans We left a good inheritance, because their culture is the foundation of our civilization. to see some sort of dress this picture of the Goddess ARTEMISA has inspired me for my own models reversals.
This is the Goddess of fertility, hunting, animals and childbirth. It was also named the Goddess of animals
The main materials used by the Greeks to make their garments were wool, flax and skins. In the women was very common piece was a "bandana" (similar to matching that we use today to go to the beach or pool), tied with a belt: the chiton could also be defined as a Long sleeveless blouse tied at the waist.
Both men and women was also very used himation was a robe or cloak.
Another very important element in female attire were the jewels that adorned their arms, necks etc ...
The style was important and put on different tiaras and hairpieces.
The dresses were too many folds, drapes and layers of ruffles.
were typical to put on sandals made of leather, tied around their ankles.
This is my updated version of two dresses inspired by all this:
Another classic image: PANDORA . She was which you opened the jar where they kept all evil, (Pandora's box), this made disasters and misfortunes: poverty, insanity, pests, diseases ... erupted and spread around the world. Despite all this Pandora give him time to close the jar before they hope to escape. Yet all was not lost was HOPE
The beautiful painting of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, in which we see a Pandora opening her box:
This painter born (1828-1882) in London of Italian origin, was plus: poet, illustrator and translator. Founded 
"brotherhood prerafaelita" that inspired by ancient Italian painters, who also enjoyed painting them mythological themes. Shared the same taste that Rossetti did not often reflect themes in his paintings realistic but symbolic and mythological images. With a little history, a broad brush, and without seeming to "my art" in all the great classics or this painter, they are unique and inimitable, my designs are now trying to conjure up a little this time of antiquity.
