I found the overly fetish heavy public clothing a bit off-putting, though, mainly because it didn't match the repeated emphasis on victorian mores that is emphasized in the text.
There is actually a solid reason for the 'fetishized' clothing- the smog and miasma of the place eats fabric, and 200 years don't go by without developing different materials to deal with it. It's given a good explaination in the book. Also- zombies. Tougher materials take a beating better.
