The nobilities from 5th-16th century attached to various style

The style of fashion inspired by the aristocracy for centuries often reflects the luxury, sophistication and expression of the upper class. These styles have evolved over time, with each era and region contributing its own elements. Below is a brief overview of fashion styles inspired by nobles from different centuries:

Medieval nobles (from the 5th to the 15th centuries):

Riding and hunting, feasting and chatting, music and dancing were the unceasing entertainment activities in the lives of nobles, along with the indispensable warfare of the Middle Ages from the 5th to the 15th centuries.

In the 14th and 15th centuries, the Burgundy were famous for their luxurious dresses. Women wearing long dresses, silk and marble are usually made of precious fabrics like silk or marble. And men wearing coats, pants, and capes, often decorated with complicated blankets and styling.

Some of the costumes worn by Duke Phillip the Bold from 1363 to 1404 show the costume of this Burgundy costume. He has decorated forty young sheep and a raven with red pearls floating on one of his coats. The frogs have bells in the mines and the sheep have the bells on their necks. The materials that the Burgundy used to sew clothes were imported from European countries, such as silk from Italy, wool from Flanders and straw from Germany. Women wearing long dresses, silk and marble are usually made of precious fabrics like silk or marble.

Not only that, but by the end of the 14th century, men's and women's hats became more popular. Burgundy women wearing excessively high bell tower-shaped hats called hennains. The word "hinnin" comes from an old French word that means "irritating", and of course this sharp, tall hat is extremely uncomfortable. The spending restrictions have limited the size of these hats.

The princesses wore a hat about a meter long, while the noble ladies were allowed to wear a hat half a metre long.

The sumptuary law regulates the use of certain fabrics and colours based on social status. So men and women in the families of kings, dukes and feudal lords make their own clothes and coats to wear when they appear in public.

Efforts to create unique costumes have led to the combination of different coloured materials into one shirt. Costumes decorated in this way are called mi-parti or parti-colored. Men's and women's costumes use the effects of parti-colored costumes.

Renaissance nobles (from the 14th to the 17th centuries):

Starting from the late 14th century to around 1600, the word "Renaissance", meaning "rebirth", attracted the attention of Europeans to ancient Greek and Roman civilization. This trend has spread to all areas of artistic culture, including costume. The change of costume began in Italy during the Renaissance and then affected other nations in Europe. The Renaissance lasted 150 years, but the fashion changed constantly over a much shorter period of time than the previous ones. Men wear vest, collar and long pants, often accompanied by flower-shaped lines and collars.

Women's fashion of this era was more natural, dresses without long tails, flowing skirt became popular. Dresses that use expensive and heavy fabrics such as brocade, damask and reindeer are often worn at nobility parties. The coat, the fact that a dress consists of a part of the coat on the top and a short dress on the bottom, is also beginning to appear.

Women wore gilets, dresses with structured underskirts, tightly cinched waists, corseted bodices, padded hips, and high-heeled shoes to accentuate their femininity. The attire featured stiff, high collars. During this period, both men and women favored wearing a decorative neckpiece called a 'Ruff'.

Baroque nobility (17th century):

The term "Baroque" is used to refer to an art style that dates back to the Italian Renaissance. This style began in Rome and Italy in the 1600s, then spread to European countries and eventually to colonies in the New 18th century. The flourishing and vigorous development of the Baroque style uses luxurious materials such as popular silk and satin, driven by royal elements, churches, and the bourgeoisie. With its exquisite appearance, with its wide-ranging dress and tight coat, it's a characteristic of women's fashion.
