It's really not that simple. If you miss the tunica underneath (which you
can't always see as a separate garment in the statuary) then you'll never
get the look right. And the draping had several required features that need
some explanation. It's kind of like a modern man's necktie - you can attach
it around your neck in dozens of ways, but only one or two get the correct
look (and I don't know how you'd ever figure out a double Windsor knot from
text or a photo, lol).
