Addressing the purple of her uniform, it's most likely a reference to the history of the city.

Mogador is named after the city in Morocco, but there's also Mogador Island off the coast, which is part of the “Iles Purpuraires”. The islands were known to have been the base for harvesting/producing the coveted “Tyrian purple” dye from sea snails native to the area by the Phoenicians and the Romans. Mogador itself also was made to have factories for producing the dye.

So we should update the tags from blue to purple? Or the fact her hairband is more blue gives the impression her uniform is purple?

The islands were known to have been the base for harvesting/producing the coveted “Tyrian purple” (as well as shades of what we would call royal blue) dye from sea snails native to the area by the Phoenicians and the Romans. Mogador itself also was made to have factories for producing the dyes as well.

So that's why AL!Mog is that color.

I feel that the purple hair/accents of AL Mogador were more so to match with the black dress and her overall creepy demeanor than a specific historical reference.

She constantly feels hot and bothered, and apparently the Mogador class destroyers were cramped and poorly ventilated so it might be true too

Does "cramped and poorly ventilated" not describe almost all warships of that era? Or was the Mogador class particularly bad in that regard?

I think if that was specifically mentioned it really was a problem
