Cloth Dyes?

One thing I wondered while reading mistborn, since the world doesn’t have all of the same animals and plants as our world, how do they create some of their cloth dyes? There are tons used by the nobleman, but I have always wondered where that came from.

In Mistborn there's no flowers or anything. So how do they get dyes for their dresses and things?

It depends on the dye. Some come from animals like snails. Some are metallic. Or, metallic is the wrong term. From minerals like lapis and things like that. There are a lot of non-floral dyes out there, even in our world. And they had extra resources in that.

You're welcome
