It should be more than 'suitable' here in my country. In the U.S., I already saw all kinds of fashion (e.g., http://www.peopleofwalmart.com ).
Regarding fashionableness, it would depend on very subjective cultural contexts. For example, most of my friends prefer my wearing long dress, but I like short, miniskirt. Men do not like my wearing high heels, as I look too tall. In big cities here, many girls wear high heels, even in beaches. But as I have observed, few women wear high heels in rural areas of the U.S.
Most women wear very conservatively in my country, but you still can see beautiful women with bold fashion, too.

@barbie Dear Barbie: I had to laugh out loud when I saw that you had referenced the
"People of Walmart" site. If I lived anywhere near a Walmart, it would be a place to go for entertainment and people watching for sure.
You are very correct with what you stated about
fashionableness (I am not sure that is even a word, my spell checker doesn't think so, but it but it is clear to me what you meant.)
Different areas of the world, of our countries and of our towns that we live, can call for different fashion choices. Even in my small remote and conservative town I will wear heels from time to time, especially at my work... I am only 5 ft 4 inches tall so I can freely wear the highest heels that I desire.
You are also right about in areas like mine that there are very few opportunities to wear heels and dress up in fantastic clothes... very few formal places to go here. I always like taking my occasional trips to a large city so I can take the opportunity to dress up. Usually here in the winter it is heavy coats, hats, gloves, boots, etc... and in the summer here very casual dress is the norm.
Thanks for posting your thoughts.... and I am still laughing about your reference to WalMart fashion!!!
