Fortunato is wearing a jester's costume when Montresor runs into him at the carnival. The costume includes a tight-fitting parti-striped dress and a cap with bells on it, reflecting his festive mood.
Fortunato and Montresor are wearing costumes because they are attending a carnival celebration. The setting of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" takes place during the carnival season in Italy, and wearing costumes is a customary practice during such festivities. The costumes add to the sense of disguise and deception in the story.
