From looking at a great many of these illustrations of tunics, the impression I get is that layers are another indication of wealth.
A single garment, a basic tunic, less wealth... an undergarment, an over-tunic (like a vest over the first layer), more wealth.
The VMS tunics look to me like they are single layer. I don't see any indication of undergarments with slits or layers to let the color and fabric of the under-layer of garments to show through.
