What is EBICHA?

In the Meiji era, Purple had been considered a noble colour used by the aristocracy. Since people were afraid of using Purple, "EBICHA" was often used instead of traditional Purple.
EBICHA had become a popular colour for Hakama (Japanese traditional pants) intended for female students.
