While one person always has a hard time speaking for a larger group - what an individual woman experiences isn't necessarily true of all women - we can say that it's pretty widely agreed that fancy lingerie, uncomfortable corsets and straps and garters and all that, are almost always bought by women who are trying to please men. Women who are happily single (cat ladies and such) or long married (mothers or dusty old wives) or lesbians aren't stereotypically known for those kinds of male-pleasing gear. To females, it's not necessarily what makes a woman attractive, and that cat lady in sweat pants may be super hot if you'd just engage with her. But males seem to get caught up in shiny pink bras.

That makes me wonder what skimpy clothing women are getting excited by while staring at themselves in the mirror. Sitting there, talking to themselves in boxers and a tee shirt, enjoying the way the light falls against their own clavicle? I'm not buying it.

It's more akin to the female version of men flexing in the mirror.

If you're talking about getting dressed up to look hot for men, yes, even to a further degree. There's very little female-female sexuality that is based around pole-dancing, heel-wearing, frilly satin leotarded ladies. That's just a male fantasy...
