The Puritans believed that appearance was for man to see, while God saw the heart. So by dressing plainly, they were outwardly more devout Christians.
Their conservative morals made them unlikely to be ostentatious in either dress or actions.

The most fervent Puritans believed that the Church of England was corrupt because it did not restrict its membership to visible saints who had experienced conversion?
The main objection among Puritans to the Church of England was the importance it attached to 'the Church, the ministry and the sacraments'. ('Ministry' here means priests and bishops). Puritans didn't like top-down church government and regarded the zest of some Anglicans for ritual as closet Roman Catholicism. Only a minority of Puritans wanted membership of the Church confined to those showing 'visible signs of regeneration (rebirth)'. Even these Puritans were often willing to accept some other members. Many Puritans still hoped for a national church, and that implied a broadly based church. Please bear in mind that there were differences among the Puritans; they were not a monolithic group.
