James,
You have an eye for characters that seem to represent iconic behavior!
A sharp dresser who is dressed for what? To impress other women, to attract attention or because that is the uniform expected of that social group. She certainly has style and energy. This you do not usually see in Los Angeles, things are generally far slower.
In Manhattan, however, this is normal. Women walk very fast and life is speedy too. They can even dine at 10 pm and if the fellow stays the whole night it's a long term relationship already!
