Not that this keeps us from screaming over the costumes in something like The Tudors. The budget demands of a show like don't explain some of the design choices they made.
I'm willing to give "historical fantasy" more leeway than something that claims accuracy. I'm willing to give designers a lot of credit if they can use and successfully hide modern techniques because they're practical. A performance venue, whether it's stage, screen or something interactive like historical faire, is a performance venue.
There's still a point at which I can't suspend disbelief anymore. I think the worst case is when there's obviously been a lot of work put into accuracy, and one or two costumes (the stars', usually) just don't match.
