well, since those folks would've been considered "peasants" this might help you out - \n\n"Peasant Clothing\nPeasant men wore stockings or tunics, while women wore long gowns with sleeveless tunics and wimples to cover their hair. Sheepskin cloaks and woolen hats and mittens were worn in winter for protection from the cold and rain. Leather boots were covered with wooden patens to keep the feet dry. The outer clothes were almost never laundered, but the linen underwear was regularly washed. The smell of wood smoke that permeated the clothing seemed to act as a deodorant. Peasant women spun wool into the threads that were woven into the cloth for these garments."

I think that is like a trick question because really, WHAT IS fashion?  If you consider fashion when people really started wearing clothing then it would be since Adam and Eve wore fig leaves.  But if you mean a particular type of fashion then what fashion are you talking about?

It might depend on the standards of the community you are in.  Years ago, black was the colcor of choice where I lived.  The last few funerals I attended people came dressed in a range of various formal and informal styles and colors.  \n\nSo, unless you've got a wardrobe like Sid Vicious or Brittney Spears, I'd guess that the cleanest and most conservative clothes you have would probably be fine.
