She looked very pretentious at the New Year's party, wearing her hair up and completely overdressed.

Pretentious means attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, or wealth than is actually possessed; showy or affected. Being 'completely overdressed' with hair done up at a casual party demonstrates trying to appear more sophisticated than warranted, making 'showy' the correct contextual meaning.
