Renaissance Dress for Men and Women

Renaissance period in medieval Europe had many diverse kinds of clothing for men and women. A medieval ensemble included cloaks, robes, capes, tunics, shirts and trousers. Renaissance dresses could be made of rich fabric such as velvet, silk, satin and lined with fur and brocade for the aristocratic men. On the other hand, common men’s medieval clothing could be made of cotton, linen, flannel and sheepskin. In our own times, these Renaissance style dresses inspired by the medieval era have become fashionable amongst the men of class and taste.
Unlike contemporary clothing for men, these dresses come in a wide range of colours, including some bright colours such as red and maroon and have frills, gathers and brocade embroidery. White, black and grey are other colours in vogue in these dresses. Contemporary synthetic fabrics such as rayon are also used along with the traditional fabrics for these dresses.
