I'm not sure if there is a definite dress code for senatorial meetings, the Wookiees and the little ET guys turn up practically in the nude.
Jar-Jar may be dressing down because as a Gungan he doesn't represent the planet officially at this point (I was working on him being seen as a bit of a sell-out by his people for even mixing with the humans who see the Naboo as unwelcome off-worlders with no legitimate claim to the planet).
By being a representative of the Gungans he could advise the queen but not address the Senate.
After the battle when the Gungans and the Naboo start to get along Jar-Jar would have equal footing as joint Naboo Senator something Palpatine could later exploit.
It would give him a better reason for being distrusted by his fellow Gungans than just being clumsy, something which needs to be watered down but could be kept to some extent.
Think more "Fish out of water" than "Crazy Frog".
Ok I get you now Bingo. You want the narratve moving forward from planet to planet rather than going back somewhere. Yes, that is a good idea.
