MINOAN CULTURE
C.3000 - 1500BCE
Centered on the island of Grete, the Minoan civilization was at its height around 1600BCE;
it was advanced and prosperous with widespread trade contacts.
Minoan dress from this isolated island society stands out among other ancient European Bronze Age cultures for its cut and stitched body-hugging garments.
The small, cinched waist, a key feature of both male and female attire, was emphasized in women by the hats, hairstyles, and embellished sleeves worn above, and the wide, flounced skirts below.
Men wore peaked caps, wrapped loincloths around their hips, and showed off their bare torsos-although tunics appeared in the later years of Minoan civilization.
The art of weaving complicated, patterned wool cloths flourished on the peaceful, wealthy island and clothing was more elaborate than that of later mainland Greek people.
Minoan ideas influenced fashion in Egypt.
