3. Exposed Genitals

The best-dressed gentleman around medieval England exposed his naked genitals below a short-fitting tunic. If the genitals didn't hang low enough, a chap could wear padded flesh-colored falsies, called "braquettes."

4. Flea Cravats
These (pictured, right) were designed to catch Pulex irritans, also called the human flea, and were worn for about 200 years from the fourteenth century onward by Renaissance ladies. The furry human flea collars were removed and shaken out to lessen the chance of fleas coming into contact with the rest of their clothing.
