Try this one for a start; it discusses third century costume and later in the Roman "provinces": Croom, A.T. Roman Clothing and Fashion. Tempus Publishing, Ltd., 2000. ISBN 0 7524 1469 0. There's some more generalized information about the Roman textile industry that late in the Empire here: Rogers, Penelope Walton, Jorgensen, Lise Bender & Rast-Eicher, Antoninette, eds. The Roman Textile Industry and Its Influence. Oxbow Books, 2001. ISBN 1 84217 046 5. The bibliographies of both books should help also.
