Medieval costumes
copied the advancing culture, and increasing trade was
making more materials available. Nobility clad themselves in elaborate and
brightly collared robes and gowns.
Silk was reserved for the upper class, and in
some areas, peasants were forbidden to possess it.
Gold and silver thread would
be used to embroider fanciful designs depicting from legend, nature or religion.
Those living in the Middle Ages would adorn themselves in
jewellery, furs, and
elaborate belts. Wigs made from peasant's hair became very popular.
Traditionally, the groom would wear his finest court apparel. Often these
garments would be studded with gems and stitched with fine embroidery.
