A crafty crocheting TikToker went viral showing off what she described as an “office outfit,” but her viewers were quick to question if the skin-bearing look would get her more HR violations than compliments.
Laurie, 24, often posts videos of her outfits showing off her handmade crocheted tops with different looks, but this one might not be everyone’s go-to look.
The Gen Z style influencer shared a video styling an “office outfit” pairing high-waisted gray slacks with a matching blazer over one of her black crotched bra tops and pointy black pumps.
As she slowly put the look together on camera viewers were shocked to see Laurie use her handmade piece as both a bra and a shirt.
She posted the video on her TikTok account for her 17,100 followers and it quickly blew up amassing 1.1 million views as other TikToker debated whether or not the outfit was actually office appropriate.
“Not sure in which office that would be appropriate but it looks great,” MatHalls questioned the “office outfit.”
“Clearly never worked in a office,” xyz24396666 quipped at the Gen Zer.
“Aint [no] way that fits in the dresscode,” Stan Kan insisted of the skimpy look.
Many other commenters replied with remarks that were inappropriate regardless of whether or not her outfit is.
“If you go like this I can’t concentrate at work,” Dani commented.
“Might lose my job for looking at you all day,” said Nexhim, who rated the look a 19/10.
As Gen Z commutes into the office for the first time, many of the young employees are being questioned about their fashionable — but not always appropriate — outfit choices.
On TikTok, there are thousands of videos tagged #workoutfits that show Gen Zers and young millennials flaunting office attire — short skirts, sheer tops and sweats — that would have once merited a serious conversation with HR about looking either too casual or too provocative and of course many people have opinions.
