Well basically toga is ancient Roman attire which is of about 20 feet in length and is normally wrapped around the body. The toga is worn over a tunic. It is generally made up of 100% wool and the tunic (which is under it) is made up of linen. In Roman times, it was worn by males and we can say that it was their traditional dress but now it is worn by females as well as males. Actually it is a very elegant looking as well as comfortable apparel to wear. These days, many fashion designers have also introduced togas on ramps and they are also worn as a fancy dress in toga parties which are extremely popular among college students as well as adults. The reason why these toga parties are getting popular is that toga is extraordinarily breezy and gives a kind of seductive look to the person wearing it. It is even worn by many celebrities in red carpets for example Megan Fox, Anna Paquin as well as Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Material Required

To wear a toga you will need a pair of sandals, a packet of safety pins, Laurel Wreath and 3 to 4 yards of material.

Method

1. Firstly throw the old bed sheet and don’t ever think to wear it as a toga as it looks really hideous and doesn’t look elegant. It will never fit accordingly.

   

2. Then buy 3 to 4 yards of drapery material in which - Cotton, poplin or muslin will be the best options for you.

3. You will have the freedom to wear anything on the top, for instance - a sleeveless T-shirt or a bathing suite would be okay.

4. Hold the material horizontally and then, wrap it around your waist for about 1.5 times.

5. After that you have to pin it or you can also tie it but I would suggest pinning with safety pins which I listed in the material required.

6. You have to throw the left material, over your shoulder, if nothing is left then it means your waist is quite large and you will need material of more than 4 yards.

7. After that you necessitate to bring material back to your waist and then push it into waistband.

8. Adjust the fabric to wrap additional of what you wish to cover.
