Explanation:

Hi! Your question was incomplete but i found the excerpt on Life in the Early Middle Ages, in the chapter Fashion in the Middle Ages.

The answer to your question would be option C. The purpose of clothing in Medieval times was to indicate one's social status. Rich people like kings wore accessories made of gold and precious stones and they also wore the finest clothing materials. Merchants from an elevated class also wore the best clothes they could afford to show people how much money they had. On the contrary, regular town people usually didnt have enough money to buy clothes so their clothes looked worn and torn.
