Types of fabrics worn

During the Elizabethan times, the type of fabric(s) a person wore instantly showed what their status was. As a matter of fact, some lower class people were not alowed to wear certain fabrics. For an example upper class men and woman wore satin, silk, or velvet. As for lower class men and woman they would wear clothes that were normally made by wool, linen, and sheepskin. Elizabethans were not allowed to wear what ever they wanted because that was against the law.
