Is it, though?
It doesn't directly affect me if they either don't know or don't want to follow the dress code. It's pretty rude to the hosts, but that's between that person and the host.

As for cyclists, I think there ought to be the same sort of cursory investigation into cycling accidents as you get with two cars. Witnesses etc. Some of the time, the accident is the cyclist's fault. The car driver shouldn't be to blame when a cyclist comes out of their blind spot and throws themselves under their wheels.

Do you mean like your reluctance to wear fancy dress to a party that specifies it on the invitation?

That's because I feel ridiculous. I still do it, though.
It'd be rude not to.
