Best Answer

A jester's costume is called a motley. This comes from the name of the fabric. A motley fabric had various coloured threads. Jesters costumes were also made in a parti coloured pattern. However it is wrong to think that the motley or parti coloured costume is the only type of costume jesters wore. In fact the wore normal court clothes for most of the time and wore their jester's costume during special events.
