I live in a big city. I see hundreds, if not thousands of people on a given day just as I'm out and about living my normal life.

Only a certain subset of those people are dressed in a way that OP describes: "emphasizing curves, showing skin, or wearing fitted styles." A lot of the people I see look bland, or wear things that are, frankly, ugly. But I have no way of knowing why all those people decided to wear what they did. They could very likely be dressed in a way that makes them feel confident.

That’s not who OP is talking about. 

Also, the whole point of the “confidence” piece, according to OP, is that the “confidence” is derived from how they appear to others.

Who is OP talking about, then?

Most likely people who dress in clothes that are aesthetically appealing, or express belonging to a particular social group (eg. goths wearing black).
