Suited and booted

Hi

I always thought that the phrase suited and booted meaning all dressed up was a local dialect and didn't exist among native speakers. But today a site revealed that it is used in British English. 

https://www.google.com.pk/search?q=suited+booted&biw=1024&bih=677&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiNpfqF8bTNAhWHuRoKHUHVD1UQ_AUIBygA&dpr=1#q=suited+and+booted+meaning

I want to know how common suited and booted is among native speakers of British English. I doubt that it is used in American English?

Thanks,

Tom
