Loincloth/kilt (?) Pattern
#29
I'm trying to figure out various ways of the subligaculum esp. when considering that most probably there weren't any patterns like we are used to nowadays but that most pieces of clothing were made out of rectangular pieces of cloth (in order to safe cloth and not lose anything by cutting it away).

I came across this instruction of how to wrap a rectangular piece of cloth around yourself (it's in German though):
http://www.gini-neumann.de/index.php/bek...-der-figur

Considering that the puppet should wear a piece of underwear which of course sits more tight (hence less material) but that a gladiator wears the subligaculum not under another piece of clothing but as the only piece of clothing you would need more material. Then it might be too bulgy between the legs. I haven't tried it out yet.

I had also tried out a pattern as was posted by TR M VALERIVS but with straps attached where the material is the widest. I didn't like it though, don't feel comfortable in it, it's a nuisance to take it back on after being to the bathroom and also I felt like wearing a dress/skirt for the beach. So I still feel most comfortable with the Shadrake pattern.

I post two pics: the bright blue is the pattern after TR M VALERIVS and the blue-grey one after Shadrake. Although my butt doesn't look too favorable in the Shadrake pattern it's still more comfortable (at least to me).
