Costume 1066-1966 by John Peacock
Thames and Hudson, Ltd. London
ISBN 0-500-27404-5

This is a decent reference for English costume from the battle of Hastings up to 1966. It is broken down by reign (William the Conqueror - Elizabeth II) and is page after page of illustrations, containing several sketches for both men and women's styles for each reign. Obviously this covers far beyond the Early Middle Ages and High Middle ages that you requested. The sketches aren't super detailed, but it gives you a really good idea of the fashion of the clothing.
