Lynette replies:

At the time the Marauders generation was at Hogwarts, lots of fashion 
styles were coming into being in the Muggle world: punk, New 
Romantic. I just assumed (especially seeing how Alan Rickman is 
costumed in the films) that little Severus was a fledgling Goth. I 
can see him trying to cultivate the dark, mysterious wizard look - it 
may even have been a cool look in the Slytherin common room at the 
time. Certainly diametrically opposed to those big-haired Gryffindor 
guys. ;') And I'm with those who think either the grey underpants come 
from washing them with all those black clothes or they really are 
grey, because otherwise the Hogwarts House Elves do crummy work.
