This item was already stitched in the USA and is ready to ship.
The stola was the staple garment of the married woman in ancient Rome. It was a long gown, generally sleeveless, that hung nearly to the feet. The stola was generally worn over a light undershirt.
As well as being a functional piece of clothing, the stola served an important social function. The stola was a sign that the woman wearing it was married. Single women or divorced women were forbidden from wearing the stola. The stola was typically worn with two belts: one fastened just below the breasts, creating blousy folds, and another wider belt fastened around the waist.
Our stola is a modern version of this garment.
