A Heritage Costumes Exclusive.
According to tradition, Rome's founder Romulus created the first 100-member Senate.
The Roman Senate functioned as an advisory body to Rome's magistrates and, composed as it was of the city's most experienced public servants and society's elite, its decisions carried great weight, even if they were not always converted into laws in practice. The rank of senator carried with it certain privileges such as the right to wear a toga with a Tyrian purple stripe (latus clavus), a senatorial ring, and special shoes. The institution outlasted all emperors, and senators remained Rome's most powerful political movers, holding key public offices, influencing public opinion, commanding legions, and governing provinces.
An exclusive piece in our Heritage Costumes Biblical and Ancient History collection of quality costume clothing, this children’s Roman Senatorial tunic is authentic to the attire worn by the senators of Ancient Rome. To capture this traditional senatorial attire more accurately, just add these accessories (not included with the Roman tunic itself) a burgundy, red or purple shoulder drape and a laurel wreath to create your very own personalized look.
