Poor people wore the same type of clothing as the wealthy but of inferior material. They wore the tunic and cloak or tunic and toga if they were citizens. However, the fabric of their clothing was coarser wool than the elite and the poor more than likely had a lot more patches in their tunics. The colors of the clothing of the poor was often simply the brownish/beigeish color of undyed wool. If their clothing were dyed at all it would have been some combination of the red and yellow as these two dyes were the cheapest.
The rich people in ancient Rome actually wore the same kind of clothes as the poor people. The styles were the same. The difference was in the quality of the materials. The wealthy could afford to wear the finer grades of wool, and even cotton or silk. They could also afford to have them dyed bright colors. The poor on the other hand, wore the coarser grades of wool and if they were dyed at all, they were generally a shade of either yellow or red, as those were the two cheapest dyes available.
In ancient Rome, poor people typically wore simple, rough garments made from coarse wool or linen, often in muted colors like brown, gray, or off-white. These materials were more affordable and practical for everyday use. The garments were usually unadorned and designed for functionality rather than fashion. Wealthier individuals, in contrast, wore brighter colors and finer fabrics, showcasing their social status.
