I consider it less about social validation and more about feeling fancy.

I didn't really mean a dress code, I mean more of a 'face code'. If someone seems physically unattractive to a bouncer, you don't get in. I see this even here in San Jose. I don't go to clubs often (I can't stand pop music), but when I do there's invariably the person at the door that's judging people before letting them in. It's disguised, of course, but not well. People that are overweight or that aren't classically attractive are less likely to get in to certain clubs.
