toga
Forum citizen's garment
A toga is the loose outer garment worn by citizens of ancient Rome—a single piece of cloth draped over the body and around one shoulder.
The toga symbolized Roman citizenship and formal occasions.
Today, toga appears mainly in toga party, where people wrap themselves in bedsheets in imitation of the ancient garment.
