We see some pretty shabby attire choices over here these days too. However overdressing is regarded to be as bad(incorrect) as underdressing over here. Many over here make considerable efforts to dress appropriately. This is helped considerably by hosts who know exactly what is required dress wise, therefore clear guidance is available. Which does help more than somewhat.
