Comparison of Dresses

I intend to draw a comparison between the attire of the Minoan Civilization and that of Ancient Egypt. Despite minor differences, their clothing exhibited remarkable resemblances. While the Minoans predominantly utilized woolen fabrics, they also incorporated linen garments into their attire, mirroring the practices of the Ancient Egyptians. Additionally, both civilizations commonly sported skirts and kilts as part of their clothing ensemble. The striking parallels between the two cultures lead me to appreciate the unique qualities of each, prompting me to express an affinity for both.

This image showcases the attire of the Minoan Civilization. Their garments were predominantly crafted from wool, with occasional use of linen derived from flaxseed. The illustration depicts the attire worn by both genders: men commonly donned skirts or kilts reminiscent of Ancient Egyptian attire, while women opted for dresses or long skirts, as evidenced in this portrayal.

Ancient Egyptian Civilization (3200-600 BCE)

This image depicts the attire of the Ancient Egyptians. Their garments were fashioned from white linen, a choice made to ensure comfort and coolness for the wearer. In the illustration, individuals are observed donning a skirt, known as a kilt, paired with a pleated robe.
