If you have access to Braun and Schneider's "Historic Costume in Pictures",
they have a few pages in there--a Byzantine bishop, early 6th century folks.
Plates 7, 8 and 9.

Subject: [h-cost] What would St. Patrick wear?

For me the gateway drug for costuming was dressing up as my patron saint
this time of year at my catholic grade school. My nephew has a sad looking
St. Patrick's robe that my sister made out of a green table cloth. (She
didn't catch the costuming bug.) This got me to wondering. What would
Patrick wear? Fifth century bishops are outside of my usual research area
and simple googling is getting me websites of the faithful and not actual
research. Any suggestion?

Mary
