To be honest, i think social class isn't really a problem in the Tenth story.
The story indeed told a story about a man from a rich family married a girl from a poor family. But the story revolve more around the role of gender within relationship, even though it's an old school one
hope this helps

1. The context of the quote "They're such beautiful shirts," she sobbed, her muffled in the folds. ... In The Great Gatsby, Daisy's reaction to the shirts demonstrates both her regret and her materialism. This moment happens during her first visit to Gatsby's mansion.
They are in Gatsby's Mansion and the shirts symbolize the way Gatsby is trying to impress—to buy—Daisy with his wealth. He believes that his money makes him worthy of her love. ... Of course, the efforts he goes to and the way he throws out all his shirts before her show that wealth will never come effortlessly to him.
2.
•Maybe the shirts being wrinkled and tossed everywhere symbolize how Gatsby felt when Daisy left him because he wasn't rich enough, or how Daisy feels when she's with Tom.
•The shirts being thrown around so carelessly shows that in The Great Gatsby objects that are as simple as a shirt don't matter, regardless of the emotions or memories connected to them. That things like shirts are just another materialistic thing
3. She starts to cry. She realises then that had she waited she could have had both: money and love. Daisy needs financial securiry, which her husband provides. She is materialistic. She gets emotional at the sight of lifeless, yet expensive shirts. She does not cry even when she sees Gatsby again to whom she even refers as an object.
I don't really know if these are right but I hope it helps you
