Clothing was not mass produced like it is today so they had to have it made for them. The rich hired a seamstress to make their dresses. The poor wore simple clothing and would sometimes trade with the rag man for items. Materials and fabrics were considered very valuable and reused many times. They were so valuable that they could be sold for extra cash when a person was broke. There were also laws concerning what colors/gems that people could wear. If a person was poor they couldn't wear purple, red, blue or yellow this was reserved for the wealth and royal.
