In comparison, they are both basically walking stereotypes of their nation. Although Iowa is much more "Holy shit, I'm an American!" than Yamato is about Japan (which also feels somehow more appropriate).
On an added note, I like the slight color variation between Yamato's and Iowa's skin. I sometimes see people ask why Japanese animes portray characters as white all the time. It isn't easy to portray the difference between asian and white using just skin tones in a super-simplified style, so everyone kind of looks the same. Side-by side, you can actually see Yamato has a slight copper hue to her, while Iowa is just white.

I always thought that Houshou was the walking stereotype of Japan, at least for the ideal women in the past(and present for some)

actually I want to see her paired next to the Atago. Then it becomes difficult to racially distinguish the two.
I wonder... what would the reaction of US players be if KDKW made Lucky E into RJ Mk. II design wise complete with Kuro art?/
Ganguro Enterprise? Eh, maybe.
I think it's a given she'll have bigger boobs than RJ, though. Higher tonnage (thought admittedly not as heavy as Akagi or Kaga), plus she's American; I honestly think all the American ships that get the KanColle treatment will have a decent amount up top.
