An Australian influencer claims that she was "stared at in disgust" over her outfit by fellow shoppers while out buying groceries.
According to news.com.au, 21-year-old model Mikaela Testa says she was harshly judged by the general public while shopping at a Woolworth's store on the Gold Coast.
A video posted to her TikTok account shows off the outfit - consisting of a denim mini skirt, with a crop top, pink cardigan, and clear perspex heels.
Her fashion statement clearly impressed her 638,000 followers on the platform, and her video has already racked up over 856,000 views and 780 comments, at the time of writing.
Indeed, a number of other TikTok users have defended her wardrobe choices.
For instance, one person wrote: "Why all the hate?!! You beautiful girl. Do you."
Another TikTok user added: "If you didn't get stares was your outfit a good outfit?"
Finally, another added: "Oh the grandma's just wish they have what u got bby. [sic]"
Commenting on the shaming she had allegedly experienced Mikaela said: "It makes me very sad and gives me huge anxiety with going out in public wearing anything hot.
"I actually got into an altercation with a woman and her husband at a local shopping center a month or so ago about the same issue. It's definitely something that happens a lot in public around the Gold Coast."
This story comes not long after another TikTok user claimed she was made to wait outside of a garage while mechanics serviced her car due to staff finding her outfit "inappropriate".
Tia Wood stated in a recent video that after she had taken her car to be inspected at an undisclosed garage, a female member of staff had informed her that Wood could not wait in the customer waiting area due to the outfit she was wearing.
Wood's outfit consisted of a pair of white sneakers, blue denim shorts, and a red crop top. However, a staff member allegedly asked her to walk around the back of the facility and wait outside.
Wood captioned the original post: "DIDNT KNOW GETTING UR CAR INSPECTED HAD A DRESS CODE!!!!!! [sic]"
