Read this excerpt from a book that describes clothing in medieval europe. nobles, including lords and ladies, often were dressed in rich-colored clothing, sometimes even with golden thread. dyeing clothes was very expensive at the time; therefore, only the wealthy could afford to have clothing made with vibrant colors. peasants wore un-dyed clothes in browns and grays mostly for two reasons: they were inexpensive, and because peasants worked the land, dirt was less predominant and the clothes were easier to clean. on the basis of this excerpt, what can a reader conclude about noble women and peasant women?
a. peasant women had no interest in fine clothing.
b. it was easy to distinguish between noble and peasant women at a glance.
c. noble women were concerned only with their wealth and status.
d. it was unlikely that a peasant woman could ever become a noble woman.
