Priestess to participate in the holy flame handover ceremony clothing design continues the ancient customs

March 30, the much-watched Beijing Olympic torch relay ceremony will be held at the Greek Athens Stadium. According to the arrangement, the priest team who participated in the torch acquisition will also attend the handover ceremony tomorrow. Elegant priestesses will join the Chinese and Greek national anthems and join the parade around the altar. At the holy fire gathering ceremony on the 24th, the elegant priestesses were impressed with the priests' gowns they liked. So, what kind of material is made from these garments? Why design into the present style? In fact, the priestesses wear a tunic, a traditional garment of the ancient Greeks. Normally, long and knee-length wear is for men, while the full length is for women. When wearing such garments, people usually have a long strapping strap around the body, which can be tied under the chest (called "high strands") or at the waist (called "low strands"), sometimes with two Beam method used simultaneously. At the Olympic flame gathering ceremony, the white dresses worn by the priestesses were created from sculptures and murals excavated from archeology. This linen yarn is now produced exclusively in a specialized institute in Greece. Its textile density is the same as that of ancient Greece, and it is not only elegant but also very comfortable to wear. The priest costumes at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Torch Harvesting Ceremony were worn by actors from the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000 and the Athens Olympic Games in 2004, and may continue to be used by the Olympic flame gathering ceremony after this ceremony. An apparel fashion specialist in China said in an interview that in ancient Greece, the priest's upper body was undressed. Now the upper body of the priestess costume has a trace on the chest, highlighting the chest, which is also a continuation of the ancient customs.
