In Shakespeare's time Londoners understood the wearing of yellow stockings to signal illicit sexuality and marital betrayal [2]. The color yellow has symbolized jealousy since Elizabethan times. He wears yellow stockings was, from the late 16th century through the 18th century, a way of saying He is jealous.

Yellow dye was obtained from the saffron plant, which was cultivated in England in the 16th and 17th centuries, especially around Cambridgeshire. It was expensive, but not wholly out of reach: Sir Thomas Overbury’s “Country Gentleman” goes to court in yellow stockings, and Shakespeare’s Malvolio in Twelfth Night famously wore them to make, as he fondly imagined, a good im- pression. They could signify jealousy or cuckoldry, as in the Roxburghe Ballad “Household Talke” from the 1620s.
