Turns out it means wearing a dress similar to a fashion in another country.

I guess no more pasta, Kung Pow chicken, wool sweaters from Scotland (I'm ok there, though, and have the DNA test to prove it), Great Dane dogs, oh, well, the list could go on. On the other hand, perhaps only non-Caucasian groups can have their cultures appropriated.
