Overview

In this age of divided kingship and foreign dynasties, dress changed while keeping the New Kingdom pattern.

Key garments and style

Pleated linen garments, wigs and broad collars continued. The Nubian (Kushite) kings were shown in Egyptian-style dress with their own headgear and ornaments.

Transition

In the Late Period, under foreign powers such as Persia, traditional dress coexisted with foreign styles.
