Best Answer

Boys and girls under the age of seven would have both worn a long dress. The boys wore a cap called a biggin. It was large and tied under the chin. The girls, like the women, wore their hair up in a small cap called a coif. After the age of seven the boys would wear the same type of clothing as the men.

The men generally wore a button up long sleeve, button up shirt with a ruffle around the collar. The pants were short and tied off at the knee.

The women wore ankle length dresses with long sleeves. The Pilgrims of that time did wear some colorful clothing.

Underwear came in the form of a shift, or long shirt. Long stockings were worn with the day clothes. No one wore underpants. Females wore their hair long and in the coif. If a hat was needed it would be placed on top of the coif. Shoes were leather and all cut the same. There was no right or left shoe.
