In this excerpt from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, what does the description of the attire of the strange man say of his social status?

And in guise all of green, the gear and the man:
A coat cut close, that clung to his sides,
And a mantle to match, made with a lining
Of furs cut and fitted—the fabric was noble

Respuesta :

It means that he was of nobility and very rich

Answer:

The man belonged to the nobility.

Explanation:

This is the statement that best describes the conclusion we can draw from the man's attire. In this excerpt, we learn that the man's clothes were well-fitted and that they all matched. We also learn that the clothes were well-made and that the fabric seemed to be of good quality. All these qualities show that the man most likely belonged to the nobility.
