Toreros wear regular street clothes and nothing would distinguish them as being a bullfighter. They change into the traditional traje de luces in the hotel just prior to departing for the bullring.

How many bulls are killed in bullfighting?
What do bullfighters wear?
A bullfighting costume mostly consists of a silk jacket, heavily embroidered in gold, skintight pants, and a montera (a bicome hat). The best fabrics are used to make a bullfighting costume so that a matador would feel comfortable and look outstanding. The bullfighting costume price can be up to thousands of dollars and a famous matador must have at least six of them for a season. The most famous matadors buy their bullfighting costumes from top designers, which are made to an exclusive and personal order. Modern matadors can be quite extravagant in their choice; they can wear pink socks, a white shirt and a red tie, and a large purple or yellow cape. Earlier, bullfighting costumes were also made to an order and each one possessed unique and unrepeatable features, distinguishing one from another.
How is bullfighting rewarded?
In the early years of bullfighting on foot, if a matador did a exceptional job during the fight, he would be awarded an ear. That meant he could claim the meat of the animal after the fight. Matadors were not well paid back then and having the meat of a large bull really was meaningful. Today, top matadors earn thousands of dollars for a single bullfight so the 'trophies' of an ear, two ears or two ears and a tail are symbolic. However, the awards are recorded and matadores who consistently receive trophies can command higher pay for a performance.
