Afternoon Talk - Roman Fashion & Beauty: Colour, Height, and Status

Join Hayley Simmons (Museum Learning Assistant) as she explores the colourful world of fashion and beauty in the Ancient Roman Empire, where the status of the Roman citizen was paramount and hygiene a necessity. Find out what influenced Roman clothing, by looking at their own words and art, and how they in turn influenced the fashions of societies to come through artefacts re-discovered over time.
