Absolutely! I know what you're saying. But wearing "showy" clothing really isn't the issue--it's the "showy" attitude. Wearing a beautiful dress with a humble spirit is not going to come across "showy"--just pretty and sweet.
When people think they are superior to others (or they act as if they are) because they're wearing nice clothing--that's when it's an issue.
