Clothing and textile sources

[richsc]

The latest book we all have used for reference is A T Croom's "Roman Clothing and Fashion." The book by Sebesta and Bonfante, "The World of Roman Costume" has many source illustrations from sculpture, but their reconstructions seem a bit dated. For leather, the only thing I have found is what is in the Vindolanda book III, by Carol van Driel-Murray et al. and has some leather and textiles in it.<br>

Are there other sources out there?<br>
<br>
There is a source book on textiles in the Roman era that I have not bought, available through Oxbow/Brown.<br>
