What to Wear to The Toga Terror of Olympus

A lavish villa on the slopes of Mount Olympus, during a lavish toga party hosted by the esteemed Philosopher, Plato.

Socrates, Questioning Philosopher

A simple, but well-worn, off-white linen toga. A walking stick or staff. Perhaps a small scroll. His beard should be neatly trimmed, suggesting his intellectual focus.

Aspasia, Influential Companion

An elegant, deep purple or crimson toga, possibly with gold trim. Elaborate jewelry, perhaps a golden diadem or intricate earrings. A finely crafted fan or a scroll containing political treatises.

Zeus, King of the Gods

A magnificent, flowing white toga adorned with lightning bolt embroidery. A laurel wreath or golden crown. Perhaps a small, stylized thunderbolt prop. A booming voice and an imposing presence are essential.

Aristophanes, Comic Playwright

A slightly disheveled but colorful toga, perhaps with a jester-like pattern or fringe. A comical mask or a small, toy lyre. A mischievous grin and an air of theatricality.

Oracle of Delphi, Mystic Oracle

An ethereal, flowing white or silver toga, perhaps adorned with symbols of prophecy or Apollo. A distinctive headdress or veil. A cryptic amulet or staff. An air of mystery and otherworldliness.

Phryne, Athenian Courtesan

A luxurious, richly colored chiton (gold or deep blue) pinned with ornate brooches, gold armbands and a delicate diadem, hair pinned up with jeweled combs. Carries herself with effortless, confident grace.

Diogenes, Cynic Philosopher

A simple, ragged toga or loincloth, perhaps carrying a lit lantern 'in search of an honest man.' He should look dishevelled and unconcerned with his appearance.

Sappho, Lyric Poet

An elegant, flowing toga in a rich color like purple or deep blue, adorned with delicate jewelry. She should carry a lyre or a scroll of poetry.

Alcibiades, Disgraced General

A lavish, perhaps slightly ostentatious, military-style toga with gold trim. He might carry a ceremonial dagger or a wine goblet he never lets go of.

Hera, Queen of the Gods

A stunningly regal white and gold toga, a golden diadem or crown on her head, and perhaps a staff topped with a lotus flower. She should exude power.

Lycomedes, Tragic Playwright

A dramatic, dark-colored toga, such as black or deep crimson. They should carry a tragic mask or a scroll containing their latest, most depressing work.

Cleon, Ambitious Politician

A toga that is fine but not overly aristocratic, perhaps in a bold, attention-grabbing color. They might carry wax tablets and a stylus for taking notes on their rivals.

Hippocrates, Skeptical Physician

A simple, practical, and immaculately clean white toga. He should carry a leather bag containing medical instruments like scalpels, probes, and bandages.

Damaris, Disenchanted Acolyte

A simple, unadorned toga, perhaps in a plain, drab color to show their rejection of vanity. They should carry a half-finished scroll and a stylus, constantly taking notes.
