The mens medieval clothing was often equally elaborate, featuring complex designs of fabric and colors.


If you have seen any of the modern reproductions of medieval clothing, common in movies such as Braveheart, this extravagant display of wealth through clothing is an easily recognizable feature of that time period. For poorer denizens of the medieval ages, clothing was much more about utility than comfort or style.
