Maybe it's a USA thing, but they typically are insulated conservative people who have disposable income. The clothing style is a stereotype of a specific group of women which just so happens to also be conservative/religious. Women outside of this group might still dress this way, but most that I've met thought that the style was cute, but over used and also didn't like the stereotype that comes with that style.

It's so pronounced a stereotype that you can go to some events and find >50% of the women wearing the same brands of the same clothes with maybe some difference in color selection.
