"Greek Dress: A Study of the Costumes Worn in Ancient Greece, from Pre-Hellenic Times to the Hellenistic Age" by Ethel Beatrice Abrahams is an exploration of the garments worn in ancient Greece, spanning from before the rise of the Greek civilization to the Hellenistic era. This book highlights changes in clothing styles and how they connect to cultural shifts in ancient Greek life, including the differences between Doric and Ionic fashion. The author wants to show how Greek clothing changed, using both archaeological discoveries and stories from old writings. The book's beginning emphasizes ancient Aegean civilizations, showing how fancy clothes in old art compare to the simpler clothes from the stories of Homer. These changes in fashion show a big cultural change as new elements got added into the costumes worn later on.
