Best Answer

Medieval Japanese clothing and medieval clothing (without geographic modifier) are two very different things.

When we speak of the middle ages, or the medieval period, without saying where it was, we are referring to Europe of the period of 476 to 1453 AD. The term medieval first applied to this time and place.

The terms medieval and middle ages have been applied to other cultures that had at least some attributes similar to those of the European middle ages, usually a hierarchical political structure with a weak central government. The two usages do not refer to the same time, when they do not refer to the same place.

The dates for medieval Japan are perhaps from 1185 AD to the second half of the nineteenth century, a period much later than the vaguely similar European middle ages.
