Lady Bracknell hopes the marriage will result in social and economic advancement.
<h3>How can we understand this?</h3>
She reveals a lack of interest in marrying her daughter to someone who does not have a good economic condition.
She does not wish to marry her daughter to someone who is not of high social class.
She prepared her daughter to belong to high society.
In the text, we can see that Lady Bracknell states that her daughter was raised with great care and zeal, to suit high society and for that reason, she should not marry in a cloak-room. This underscores Lady Bracknell's desire to marry off her daughter in a pompous, sophisticated, and excess wedding that promotes the family's social and economic advancement.
