True, but in the evolution of clothing dyes over long periods of time, subtle colors were eventually developed, but were at first so expensive, that only the rich could afford them. This lead to our present day look of light pastel colors seen among the clothing of “sophisticated” people and the bright colored clothing (and houses) of those who are not.
