As you can see in the picture, there a man and a woman are standing in loose clothing, which, first of all, was very comfortable for the body. Greek looks were constantly changing from very simple and light looking to very complex outfits with a lot of decoration and patterns. Especially a lot of details on the costumes of the Greeks were in the Hellenistic era. At the same time, in Greece, a lot of buildings were built in the style that everyone now knows as the Greek style of buildings.
