Clothing of a puritan

Puritans wore plain, simple clothing. The color of the clothing consisted of black, white, and grey. The girls wore dresses covering their knees, and the men most of the time wore hats. The puritans chose to dress like this because they did not believe in expensive clothes. jewels, wigs. The Puritans felt that if they dressed humbly, they would please god. They thought that god would not be happy that they were spending money on "silly" things like fancy clothes. This was one reason why the puritans formed their own group. Here are some pics:
