I'm sure the "proof of wealth" kinda went like:
Ah, so you can afford pants and shirt?
Well how about a fancier shirt?
Yes? Well how about a jaunty hat.
Yes? What about fancy shoe buckles?
Yes? How about stockings?
Yes? Well now I've got a wig beneath my jaunty hat.
That too? How about makeup and perfume then!
Maybe an unnecessary cane. A gold chain sticking out so you know I have a nice watch hidden away. My fanciest kerchief sticking out of my pocket. See how white?
