    They often do, certainly. That being said, it's as common to overdress - that is, to wear clothes of a supposedly higher class to make oneself look more than one really is. It's expensive, but with priorities as skewed as they are, people find money for it, even if they have to buy cheaper food thereafter.

Sounds similar to here in the states.

    Don't most people in the developed countries do that?

I wouldn't know. I've lived in the States all my life. That's why I asked. :)
