Best Answer

The Romans did not have clothing fashions or fashion designers. They had clothing conventions. The Roman convention for men was plain clothes. They were supposed to wear undyed wool, which was off white. The tunics and togas of high status men could have two narrow purple stripes (angusticlavia) and those of the senators two wide purple stripes (laticlavia) on their tunics. The senators could also wear the toga preatexta, which had a purple strip. The emperor could wear a purple toga in ceremonial occasions

There were fewer restrictions on the dresses of women. They could be almost of any colour. Patterned clothes were rare. A wide ornamental border (instita) on the lower hem of a white tunic or stola was a marker of wealth.
