A woman's dress said a lot about her, as it told what her social position was. Rich people dressed better than poor, of course, but there were laws, called sumptuary laws, that restricted people of certain classes from wearing certain specific kinds of clothes, so a person who was merely rich could easily be distinguished from a person who was of a noble family. Sometimes the sumptuary laws also required prostitutes to wear distinguishing clothes, such as a red dress or a striped hood. And, of course, nuns wore distinctive clothing.
