very much so, and poor, and working people, frequently "dress" so as not 
to appear...poor and working class!

and those who are neither poor nor working class  have no need to appear 
to be what they are not...

dress is not simply some individual or marketing choice, but often 
socially imposed...

that's in urban areas...in rural areas, slightly different  fashions rule...
