During the Old Kingdom men and women largely wore simple white garments. Daily dress was a simple rectangular piece of linen wrapped around the body and tucked in at the waste, but many poorer men and manual workers worked naked. Wealthy men wore a short kilt which was sometimes pleated and a shoulder cape. By the Middle Kingdom, men´s kilts had become longer and more complex and ornamental pendants were often attached to elaborate belts. The double kilt was introduced (a triangular loincloth was worn under a more standard kilt) and many men also wore a sleevless shirt held in place with a belt. Both men and women used linen (and occassionally woollen shawls) and cloaks to deal with the chill of night time.
