The best answer to this is to look at pictures of people who were alive at that time, or watch a film set in the period with accurate costuming (Shakespeare in Love, or Elizabeth R, for example). Fashions changed, of course, as they always do, becoming increasingly exaggerated toward the end of the Elizabethan period. Men wore hose and puffed-out short pants, with shirts and a jacket called a doublet over it. Doublet sleeves tended to be puffy and were sometimes slashed to show the shirt beneath. Women wore long dresses, also with puffy sleeves, flattened bodices and low waists. The hips were exaggerated, eventually to a ridiculous extent. Both men and women wore starched ruffs around their necks which became larger and more impractical as time went on.
