Content: Women also either wore a linen kerchief that draped around their neck and tucked into the top front of their stays for modesty or they wore a flat linen collar. Over the stays, women wore a waistcoat, which was like a long-sleeved, close-fitting jacket, that was made out of linen canvas or wool. Women also wore one or two petticoats, which were long, full skirts made out of linen or wool. On their legs, women wore stockings, which came up over the knee and were tied with garters, that were made from ribbon, knitted or leather strips, to keep them up. These stockings were hand-knitted and were usually made out of wool or linen. Women also wore aprons over their clothing to keep them clean and leather shoes. Women wore their hair pinned up under a linen cap, called a coif, and often wore a felt hat over their coif. What Did Men Wear? For under garments, men wore a loose, long-sleeved knee-length linen shirt. Over this shirt they wore a doublet, which was a long-sleeved jacket with a single row of buttons down the front.
