Renaissance Costumes
The popular image that we have of Renaissance costume, particularly that of England, is what was worn by the upper classes. Style was paramount, and both men and women in the Renaissance wore clothing we would consider costumes, similar to the 'costumes' we wear in formal occasions today. Look at a modern wedding to see a perfect example. If an historian were to see a photo of a wedding in our time, might he not think we wore such finery all the time?

Renaissance Costume
Renaissance costume was distinctive. The Renaissance culture was very conscious of fashion, and their costume was extremely stylized, very complex and elaborate, and above all, striking. The very nature of the Renaissance clothing style was to make a statement, whether that was of status, power or of wealth.
