Ancient Egypt

When people think of ancient Egypt, they think of ancient houses, living, and their culture. But look at yourself and what you are wearing right now and take a look at an ancient Egyptian let's say. Notice something? Well yes you do. Clothing and fashion of the has changed a lot since back then. Egyptian fashion was very unique especially. Egypt meant "Home of the ka(soul) of Ptah". Egypt borders the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea in middle eastern Asia and is a country mainly in northern Africa. Egypt has Israel to the east, Sudan to the south, and Libya to the west. It was from 3000 B.C.E to 30 B.C.E. Egyptians are remembered from their hard work for everything especially their afterlife and their mummies that they made. In ancient Egypt, fashion, however, was a very active and improving culture at the time. One of the improvements are the fashions of both women and men. Fashion was important to the ancient Egyptians because it helped them from the extreme heat and helped them stay cool and be able to work. Clothing for the ancient Egyptians slightly differed from children, men, and women.

The most simple clothing was for children. Children didn't have to wear anything until their puberty. When they turned six, they were allowed to wear something to protect them for working under the hot sun. Some children however wore accessories even though they didn't have any types of clothing on their selves. Egyptians liked to dress up and be fashionable no matter when or where they were!

Men's clothing was simple and thin, since it was very hot in Egypt.
