In the middle ages a common outfit for a wealthy person such as a noble would probably wear clothes of great colors like red, green and blue. Sophisticated styles and elaborate designs were preferred among the upperclass. Men would wear colored tights, tunics, and long coats etc. Women would wear long dresses, and head wear that were very well made with great craftsmenship. As well as tunics, and coats of fur. Including crowns made of gold or silver with jewels and pearls for show. Clothes definitly played a part in showing one's weath. As the Crusades concluded new fabrics like silk came to Europe and were in fashion with the wealthy.
