ok so after too many episodes of the original series the way she is dressed is 1 about "don't judge a book by its cover" she looks like a bimbo but she actually is smarter than you
and 2 no respect for conventions , rules , dress in non politically correct way
That's the trope of mystery-solver who seems like an idiot, but it really getting you to let your guard down.
Started with Columbo https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1466074/
Modern version, Elsbeth, which is pretty good https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26591110/
Unless you watched good wife now the character is on crack
