Poor people wore rough cloth called homespun and poorly tanned leather. Rich people wore whatever they could afford. Silks, brocades , finely worked leather , boots and shoes, and undergarments, a luxury most poor people did without.

rich people live with high standard and poor's don't have any standard.
