I think how much one has to wear in the way of clothes in Equestria is more a sign of how beureaucratic the place is than how wealthy or well managed it is.

It's sort of the same in real life. In more urbanized places where there's lots of white collar jobs, people tend to be wearing suits and ties, but people tend to dress more practically in rural towns. And since Equestria is a clothing-optional sort of place, suit/tie translates to some clothes and casual wear translates to none.
