The kolpos (Greek κόλπος, breast) is the blousing of a peplos, chiton or tunic in Ancient Greek clothing, whereby excess length of the material hangs folded over a zone (a narrow girdle). The fabric of the garment was typically cut longer than the shoulder-to-floor measurement of the women or man wearing it. The excess length was dealt with at the waist (creating the kolpos) and optionally the top edge (creating the apoptygma). To create the kolpos, a zone was tied around the body below the breast (high-girdled) or at the waist (low-girdled) and excess fabric was pulled up over it. The fabric fell over the girdle so as to hide it, and was often pulled longer in back than in front. This fold was the kolpos. A second (visible) zone could be tied over the kolpos to redefine the waist, high or

  • Il kolpos è quell'aspetto sblusato che assumono in genere i chitoni, i pepli, o le dell'abbigliamento nell'antica Grecia quando parte della loro stoffa viene tirata in vita, legata e fatta ricadere abbondantemente sulla cintura. Per ottenere questo effetto, i tre indumenti sono cuciti in lunghezza maggiore rispetto all'altezza dell'individuo.

  • The kolpos (Greek κόλπος, breast) is the blousing of a peplos, chiton or tunic in Ancient Greek clothing, whereby excess length of the material hangs folded over a zone (a narrow girdle). The fabric of the garment was typically cut longer than the shoulder-to-floor measurement of the women or man wearing it. The excess length was dealt with at the waist (creating the kolpos) and optionally the top edge (creating the apoptygma). To create the kolpos, a zone was tied around the body below the breast (high-girdled) or at the waist (low-girdled) and excess fabric was pulled up over it. The fabric fell over the girdle so as to hide it, and was often pulled longer in back than in front. This fold was the kolpos. A second (visible) zone could be tied over the kolpos to redefine the waist, high or low. This might be hidden again by the apoptygma, the loose, folded down top of the peplos. (en)
  • Il kolpos è quell'aspetto sblusato che assumono in genere i chitoni, i pepli, o le dell'abbigliamento nell'antica Grecia quando parte della loro stoffa viene tirata in vita, legata e fatta ricadere abbondantemente sulla cintura. Per ottenere questo effetto, i tre indumenti sono cuciti in lunghezza maggiore rispetto all'altezza dell'individuo. Di solito, nella forma del kolpos, l'eccesso di stoffa è maggiore sul davanti che sul dietro. Quando il tessuto in "eccesso" non viene legato in vita, ma viene tirato verso la parte superiore della figura, invece che un kolpos si va a formare un apoptygma: una sorta di mantello, con una forma simile a un cappuccio, che si può far scendere o sulle spalle o sul petto. In alcuni casi è possibile trovare entrambe le combinazioni; tirando un maggiore quantitativo di stoffa sul davanti si può avere un kolpos sul quale ricade un apoptygma.In questo modo la parte frontale della figura ha la possibilità di muoversi con maggiore agilità, non avendo l'impedimento del tessuto sui piedi. Questa combinazione si chiama "a piede libero". (it)
