Can anyone be of assistance and show exactly how the fibulae is pinned to the cloak. I have not seen any close up pictures as to exactly how this was done.
thanks,

Robert,
The knicky-picky section here... :wink:
Your cruciform brooch should be worn in vertical position and with the brooch's foot neatly protruding over your shoulder.
Tsk, tsk, typical late Roman lack of discipline... :roll:

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.

I won't recoomend the 'Flying Aitor' picture.. :twisted:
So I just mailed you the best one I have from you.
But.. I have more, including some ones where you wear it as 'bad' as mine (I even found your comment onRAT when I first posted that picture, two years ago!)...

Oh, thanks, Robert! 
It is hard to keep yourself properly dressed while you're having some action, even if it is only conducing a Roman festival! :lol:

But I am afraid that Mike is not exactly searching for Late Roman mantles and brooches... :?

Well, he should be more clear, then, asking for the fibula and the cloack...
