The World of Roman Costume (Wisconsin Studies in Classics)
Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review
Imagine surveying almost a thousand years of Roman garments; then compiling them in a logically-organized catalog accessible to a variety of disciplines and readers. The work which has contributed to this catalog is immense: this is the first in-depth examination since the pioneering works of the 1920s and 30s, and provides a strong history and examination of Roman dress.
