When worn, the peplos was folded over at the neckline to make an apoptygma , or as fashion historian Harold Koda calls it, a capelet-like overfold. The dress would be fastened at the front of the shoulders with two fibulae , or brooches, to which Koda refers as the single defining detail of the peplos, and to an extent, the Doric stye of dress for both sexes (though mens clothing in the Doric style AKA the Doric chiton could be fastened on one shoulder only, and did not have the apoptygma)
