The correct answer is: to highlight the cultural differences between the narrator and Meg.
Including details about the narrator trying on Meg's clothes serves to emphasize the cultural differences between the narrator's family, who are Taiwanese immigrants, and Meg's family, who are White Americans. The narrator's fascination with and attempt to fit into Meg's clothes highlight their curiosity and desire to assimilate into American culture, while also highlighting the cultural divide that exists between the narrator and her classmates.
