What people wore back in Ancient Egypt
All of men use to wear a wrap-round skirt that was tied around their waist with a belt. Sometime the material would be wrapped around their legs as well. The length of the skirt would depend on the fashion at that time. During the time of the Old Kingdom they were short while in the Middle Kingdom they were calf-length.
Egyptian women wore full-length straight dresses with either one or two shoulder straps.
Children would not wear any clothes until they were 6 years old and when they were old enough to they wore the same clothes as the men and women did.
The Ancient Egyptians were barefoot most of the time, but they wore sandals when they were special occasions or if they were most likely to get hurt while doing their jobs. The sandals worn by the poor were made of woven papyrus or palm while those worn by the rich were made of leather.
