Roman costumes are testament to the importance of one of the greatest civilizations in history. The empire that is now known as Ancient Rome is still popular enough that Halloween fans and cosplayers often opt to dress-up as important figures from the period or characters from movies and TV shows set in those times. The ancient Roman civilization, spanning a period of 25BC to 395AD, is a civilization whose influence extended well beyond its lifespan and deep into the second millennium.

The art and literature uncovered, along with the subsequent creative renditions in the form of movies, theatre and art have imbued the culture with what feels like immortality, which explains why Roman costumes remain a principal category when it comes to historic outfits for Halloween.
