The followings books will be useful for the study of Late Roman female fashions and accessories
'Late Roman Painting'; W. Dorigo. Milan. 1966, or ed..London. 1970.
'The Unknown Catacomb'; A. Ferrua. New Lanark. 1990
'Au Fil du Nil'; Musee Dobree, 2001.
'The Clothed Body in the Ancient World'; ed Cleland, Harlow and LLoyd Llewellyn-Jones. Oxford 2005
The last two should still be available to buy and are invaluable, the other two would require a University Library.
A little out of date, especially with regards to early imperial military but
Mary Houston's classic work 'Ancient GreekRoman and Byzantine Costume and Decoration'; second edition, London. 1947. still has a lot of basic information. (A new edition was published in 2003)
