Answer:

This is to emphasize that Ignatius had an unconventional priority and was inconsistent with other people's priorities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ignatius does not have his appearance as a priority in his life, for that reason, the clothes he wears are different from those of other people, making him become someone very peculiar, different and strange. He is probably aware of people's perception of his appearance, but he doesn't care, because he has other priorities, responsibilities and concerns.
