Her are some quick facts on Medieval Tailors:

  • Tailors used fabrics such as burnet, perse, Lincoln and kersey.
  • Most people made clothes themselves because they couldn't afford the ones tailors made.
  • Material used was domestic wool.
  • The cloth was dyed before it was sent to the tailor.
  • Medieval society was very class-conscious.
  • Brighter colours, better materials and longer jacket length were usually signs of greater wealth.
  • Towards the end of the Middle Ages(medieval period), men of wealthy classes sported hose and a jacket, often with pleating or skirting, or a tunic witha surcoat.
  • Woman wore flowing gowns or elaborate headwear, ranging from head dresses shaped like hearts or butterflies to tall seeple caps and Italian turbans.
  • About 1500 metres of finished thread was required to make an entire dress.
  • The domestic wool was turned into cloths of varying and different strengths.
  • Cloth absorbed hot dye more easily.
  • All dyes were made out of natural materials like minerals or plants and stuff.
