    I did a quick search in google for pictures of elizabethan clothing, and a website popped up that has some nice sketches.  A lot of the pictures that you are going to find of clothing are going to be of royalty rather than the everyday person.  This is an area of special interest of mine, so let me know if I can help you further.  P.S.  Maybe wikipedia would have some pictures that would help with the clothing
