American culture has made "dressing up" inappropriate. Most girls wear crap and when you're dressed up, wearing a nice/sexy/cute dress, you almost feel uncomfortable.

+100!!!
When I want to wear a skirt, dress (a little above the knee high) people start staring and it makes me feel I'm dressed inappropriate... :(("

Мой ответ:

Based on occasion, ladies. Cocktail party is not the same as going to the church, and going to pop-concert is not the same as going to a funeral. I've seen enough "slutty-looking" American girls going to "adult' cocktail party or to a dance club, but not to the family-type event. But Russian women dress-up like prostitutes everywhere, even to the funeral, or parent-teacher conference at school.
Sometimes my wife would ask me how she should dress up to her cousins birthday party to Russian restaurant. I'd suggest to dress up like a whore, so she looks like everyone else.
no offense, please.

I have literally seen what I am talking about. Russian ladies (especially the ones who don't work), simply don't have any "normal" clothing, and their version of "dressing up" is a "Russian party" version. I don't blame them.
The ones who are actually more integrated to American "burb" culture have some other "common sense" clothing, and they "manage" not to raise the "red flag" everywhere they go.
It is is absolutely as I am telling you in NY/NJ/Philly area. I've seen it. I know!!! LOL.
When I was in Jersey my wife sent me to Kinder-garden parents-teacher and she staid home with our youngest. There were 6 other ladies, Jewish and not, but one of them was definitely Russian. I've figured it out before she even opened her mouth.
Guess why?
She was wearing "шпильки" she could barely walk on, fishnets and ass-tight mini, with a silk top you would not want to wear to the office (perhaps to the bed or to meat-packing district in the city).
I was making fun of her, but she later became my wife's best GF. Who would have thought!
One acquaintance of mine told me "I thought Russian ladies all dress up like prostitutes regardless of age, but later i was told its just "European fashion", but how come Italian and Greek ladies don't wear shit like that?"
