I love the straw hats!
That lady in the 'troublesome trio' picture, what period dress is she wearing?

Just seen your posting. I think she's wearing a dress based on one in a display at Arbeia Museum. Think I saw something like it in a publication, but can't lay my hands on it at present. Needless to say, she is portraying a lady of high status. The rest of us schlep around in tube dresses/peplos types.

I plan to dress my elder daughter (4 years old) as a well-to-do little lass for our Roman festival in September. In the meantime, here you have our two late Roman women inside the Centcelles dome during las TÃ rraco Viva...
