A. 63
B. 98
C. 112
D. 288

Question is region specific, there might be people writing GMAT who doesn't even now what is saree and will it be possible to wear saree with Jean's or not.

T shirt and jeans can be worn simultaneously so = 4×2 = 8 ways
Jumpsuits and Jean's tshirt are mutually exclusive so = 8+6=14
Formal shoes and cowboy shoes are mutually exclusive so = 5+3=8
Total number of ways =14×8=112

Terrible question, you don't specify that she can't wear a jumpsuit and a t-shirt.

With that logic being naked is an option too
