Best Answer

The easiest way to see what type of clothing was in fashion during Shakespeare's life is to search for images of people alive at the time. Fashions changed during his lifetime--they became decidedly less practical as time went on. Starched lace collars became ever more extravagant, and the women wore pannier skirts that made their hips look five feet wide. But these fashions were the perogative of the rich, and middle class folks like Shakespeare and his family dressed much more plainly, as paintings of him and others attest.
