This depends on the society that the Jews lived in. In Nazi Germany and most occupied countries, the Jews were required to wear a Yellow Star of David with the word "Jew" in the local language affixed to the breast of their jackets and shirts. In the Ottoman Empire, Jewish males were required to wear yellow turbans.
