Best Answer

If you had the money they were made by tailors, there were Tailor Guilds all over the countries. If you did not have the money to hire someone else to make your clothing, you could purchase it 2nd hand, or you made it yourself.

Sewing Machines were not around until the 1800's so you had to use needle and thread and hand sew each item.
