How did poor people dress in Shakespeare's time?

Poorer people wore the same kinds of clothes as anyone else: pants and shirts, dresses and skirts, jackets (called doublets) or cloaks, boots and shoes. The poor were forbidden by law to wear colours obtained with expensive dyes or expensive foreign fabrics or clothing adorned with expensive furs or jewellery. Only the very rich were allowed to dress like that. Plain-woven woolens or linens, dyed with vegetable dyes (and thus usually browns, greens and yellows) would be the fabrics worn by the poorest people.


What clothes were worn during William Shakespeares time?

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.
