Roman clothing ranged from highly pragmatic in the cases of farmers and legionaries (tunics where the centerpiece of their outfits) to lavish and comfortable with senators and other higher class citizens wearing long tunics with togas for added warmth. Worth noting as well that since Rome stretched over many different climates there are also examples of more specialized clothing. Furthermore there was influence from both migrants and conquered cultures. Interesting items of clothing that stand out that would have been accessible to Romans where the wide brimmed Greek hats, Gaulic pants, Persian mithraic outfits (which had red pointed hats, capes, and pants), bracelets, clasps, brooches, necklaces, make-up, sandals, shoes, hobnail boots, and even embroidery.
