Tyrian cloth
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Tyrian cloth was an ludicrously expensive fabric only owned by the wealthiest individuals in the galaxy. Lott Dod had several garments made of violet Tyrian cloth.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Tyrian cloth may be from Rodia in the Tyrius system. Also, it may be an allusion to ancient Tyre, a real-world trade city of ancient Phoenicia famous for merchants who sold luxury goods.
