What do Romeo and Juliet dress like in the movie that took place in 1303?

I cannot say that I recall any movie version of Romeo and Juliet which starts out with titles reading "Verona, 1303, Saturday afternoon". If you are thinking of the 1968 Franco Zeffirelli film, that could not have been set as early as 1303. The fashions there suggest the 15th century, particularly the extremely short doublets and codpieces worn by the men which did not arrive until very late in the 15th century. For some reason this artificial and somewhat anhistorical style of costuming has become common in productions of Romeo and Juliet, particularly the small cap worn by Juliet which is called a Juliet cap. If you compare the Zeffirelli film with, say, the BBC film of 1978, the Christopher Neame and Ann Hasson film of 1976, the 1954 Laurence Harvey and Susan Shentall film and even the 1936 MGM spectacular you will see the same type of costuming--men in really short doublets, hose, sometimes particoloured, and codpieces, women in long empire-waisted gowns with long sleeves, sometimes slashed, sometimes trailing, and hats (except the often wimpled nurse) including the ubiquitous Juliet cap.
