I don't know your culture at all so it's very difficult for me to comment something constructive at this level.
All I know is that I always prefer to be comfortable in my clothes and not worry about others when I dress. But here, clothes aren't as much of a social issue as they are with you. That is, if someone dresses in a way that we're not used to seeing, or dresses in a way that makes us think of something, we'll simply make assumptions about what that person does for a living, or how that person thinks.
I find it so interesting to discover other cultures, so thank you for your article!
