The most distinctive part of the costume was the tall black "Welsh hat" or "beaver hat", thought to have originated in France at the end of the 18th century. The hats had a tall crown, cylindrical or conical in shape with a wide brim, and were usually trimmed with a band of silk or crêpe.

Early Irish dress, based on Gaelic and Norse costumes, consisted of check trews for men, worn with a fringed cloak or mantle, or a short tunic for both men and women, worn with a fringed cloak. This style of dressing was prohibited in the 16th century under sumptuary laws, passed to suppress the distinctive Irish dress and so overcome Irish reluctance to become part of England. In particular, the wearing of the fringed cloak was forbidden, as was the wearing of trews or any saffron-coloured garment (saffron yellow was an important feature of Irish costume).

早期的爱尔兰服饰源自盖尔人和挪威人的服装。男士着紧身格子呢绒裤，肩戴一流苏斗篷或是男女皆宜的短束腰外衣，女士也会披流苏斗篷。而16世纪颁发的节约法令禁止这样风格的服饰。这法令是为了镇压特色爱尔兰服装，同时也是要对付不愿与英格兰合并的爱尔兰。
