Anyone think that Rarity is the only one enthusiastic about dressing up the six?

It always feels like all the mane five are forced into getting dressed up by Rarity. One would think at least one other pony would feel fine doing that but they all look like they're getting forced. I guess Pinkie Pie likes it but she seems to like everything so doesn't real count.

Well, keep in mind that fashion is a passion for Rarity!  I don't think it's so much that the others dislike getting dressed up as much as it is they have other things on their mind/plate.  Rarity seems incredibly enthusiastic because it's pretty much not only a passion of hers but a job/business in a sense.  The others have different goals and interests that they may consider more important.  

 

Aside from that, Rarity does tend to be just a bit extra with clothing! The rest of the group may like getting dressed up and looking nice if only on special ocassion but in their own style, not Rarity's! And as it's often Rarity being the one to have or help them dress up, they may initially show some discomfort due to Rarity more often than not applying some of her own tastes into what she makes for them.  

 

It's as if a typical tomboy type were pushed to wear a dress and felt/looked uncomfortable in it.  They could very well love to dress up but in their own way and with their own style! It might not be that they dislike the idea of dressing up, they may just dislike the idea of wearing dresses.  

 

This is just my thoughts on this though.  Hope this made some level of sense!  ♥

Rarity is all about the clothes. I don't think most of them are annoyed, probably just inconvenienced because she seems to want to dress up at the most inopportune times. XD The only ones I see being truly annoyed is RD and Applejack as they are definitely not ones that are into fashion. Which makes it cute when Rairty smothers RD with fabulous clothes.

I find it weird that Rainbow Dash, the one with the most flamboyant mane/tail and name didn't end up being the fashionista in fact became the opposite.

Clothing is Rarity's excuse to launder the bits she earns from all of her gem finding.  Did she pay the 90% high bracket equestrian income tax on those carts of gems she hauled out of the diamond dog lands, or did she sew them into a few dresses for Sapphire Shores?

Sort of. She really likes fashion, but her friends really like spending time with rarity doing so.

Google G3 Rainbow Dash...*runs away*

 

Clothing in a world where wearing it is optional and the general population can survive just fine without it, is a want, not a need. Some ponies like Rarity have a passion for it as it can make ponies look good. It's just more of an accessory than something ponies actually need. Formal events in Equestria can require formal wear just like in our world, but otherwise, wearing clothes just isn't something everypony thinks about on a regular basis. Also, Rarity knows how best to wear clothing items so maybe her line of thinking is that she's probably best off putting it on her friends so that they can look their absolute best.

They all agreed to the fashion show in Suited for Success, even Rainbow Dash, so it's not like the others have any objections to dressing up.
