Much of this movie is a caricature of the wildly-rich Singaporean lifestyle. Clothing and appearances are crucially important. Therefore, Peik Lin is revealed to have a variety of outfits with her for multiple occasions -- it would be low class to attend a cocktail party in anything other than a cocktail dress. When she bluntly says, "I'm not an animal, Rachel," she is implying that only an "animal" would wear the wrong type of outfit to such a sophisticated gathering. She could have said, "I wouldn't be caught dead wearing anything other than a cocktail dress to Nick Young's party," but she humorously exaggerated the point by saying that only the lowest type of person would make that unforgivable fashion mistake.
