Marjorie & C. H. B.Quennell, Everyday Things in Archaic Greece (London: B. T. Batsford, 1931).
Wait, wait…. Is that seriously it? How their clothes go?
that genuinely is it
When you’re carding, spinning and weaving everything from scratch, using the big squares exactly as they come off the loom must seem like a fucking brilliant idea. 90% (or more) of pre-14th century clothing is made purely on squares (and sometimes triangles cut from squares).Â
How did they get the fabric so fine it draped like that? Was that something medieval europe forgot? Or do I just have a completely misguided image of historical clothing?
Medieval Europe also had incredibly fine weaves, though the ancient world tended to have them beat. Linen was found in Egypt woven with a fineness that we’re still trying to replicate, and there was a kind of cotton woven in India called ‘woven wind’ that was supposedly still translucent at eight layers, and wool shawls so fine that the entire thing could be drawn through a wedding ring.Â
The way they could get away with pinking and slashing doublets in the 16th century was partially because the fabrics were so tightly woven that you could simply cut a line on the bias and nothing would fray.Â
Modern fabric machining sucks ass in terms of giving us any kind of quality like the kind human beings produced prior to the Industrial Revolution.Â
*yells about textile history*
Constructing clothes with squares was done in Europe at least up until the early 19th century. Difference being that triangles were sometimes inserted to make more width at say the hem, or under the arms, while ancient Greek and Roman clothes often depended on just the squares.
Modern tailoring is usually said to have started with military uniforms, where movement was of the essence. Each piece of fabric was especially cut to offer maximum movement and comfort, and soon this was adapted in civil wardrobes as well, especially for men. But we’re talking as late as the 18th century. The preferred construction up until the early 19th century was big square pieces sewn together and draped/tucked in place in various ways. One of the benefits with this was that the seams could be removed and the fabric reused and resewn plenty of times.
To show some examples: here is a pattern taken from a 1560s Italian dress. The skirt is pretty much four long strips of fabric, with four inserted triangles. The bodice is two square pieces with shoulder straps. It creates this style.
Or this Robe à l’Anglaise pattern from the 1770s, with its long, square panels and rich pleats, which amazingly enough results in this style of dress.
Or a Coptic tunic from around 800, resulting in a garment in this style:
Primary constructions is the basic of historical fashion (pre-1800), and once you’ve tried it there really is no going back. It creates fab garments, and it’s amazingly comfortable to wear. It can also still be found in folk costumes around the world, for the reasons stated in the initial posts: it’s the best way of using all the precious fabric and avoid unnecessary waste.
Textile tumblr is my favourite

IM FUCKING SCREECHING
what the fuck is this
The one hour version is just as rad
The boy has never had anything nice and the second he gets his hands on some money he tries to buy a fucking solid gold cauldron like started from the bottom now we here I love him so much
Honestly Hagrid saved Harry from so much embarrassment. Can you imagine him turning up to his first potions lesson with a fucking solid gold cauldron??? Like Snape already hated Harry think about what he would have said if Harry just plonked that on his desk
I think he would have said fuck it to his promise to dumbledore and murdered Harry on the spot
AGAIN WITH THE SOLID GOLD POSSESSIONS HARRY. I’m surprised he never replaced his glasses with solid gold ones the boy clearly has a taste for the finer things in life. Or when he had his bones removed by Lockhart in second year, he probably had to stop himself from asking Pomfrey to just fill his arm up with gold instead of bones. Â
NO WONDER HE CAN SEE THE FUCKIN SNITCH SO WELL HE’S ON THE HUNT FOR GOLDÂ

Furoshiki Bags
Furoshiki (風呂敷, fu-rosh-ki) is a traditional Japanese wrapping cloth. The handmade leather strap is easily attached, letting you use your furoshiki as a shoulder bag. It’s just as easy to take off again, and doesn’t damage the cloth in any way. This thin furoshiki and leather strap take up very little space when folded, making them ideal for traveling.

Kene Kuin or Kenê (true design). The Sacred Art of the Huni Kuin Kaxinawa people (and also the Yawanawa people). Txana Muru, Brazil 2014. Photos by Gê Vasconcelos “The keñes are all over the world, is everywhere we don’t know, we don’t take notice. We are here in the keñe of light, luminous - bright. We separate the day from the light, and in our chants we ask for clarity of mind, for a carpet of light to be placed so we can enter. On the sacred carpet of light we ask not to be in danger, not to step into places that can disturb our path. The carpet of light is something given to us by the spirit, it is a path that one has to walk without fear of doing something wrong. It is the sacred carpet, the keñe of good things, the guardian, which the creator places on our path so that we may walk over.“ - Yuve Keñe, by Nani Yanawawa (Brazil)
