Hero and Leader

I concentrate on the role of clothing among the aritocrats adn their followers. There is one person that caught my attention. A woman named Hero, who was once loved by the ardent young man Leander. I was entranced by the colors of her clothing and the details of her dress. The silk of her clothes and the embroidering showed the quality of her clothes. Her clothes were tattered and covered and stains which mirrored the stains on her soul felt from the bloodshed her lover felt physically. She wore a myrtle wreath full of flowers and leaves. Her clothes were elaborate and excessive which was common of women of this time. This outfit she had made for herself showed the pain she had felt in her hard life.
