I’m a 6ft tall lawyer – I’ve been dress coded for my ‘short’ skirts but clothes just fit my body differently than most
A WOMAN has been dress coded at work and received rude comments for the clothes that fit her tall figure.
According to a recent video on TikTok from lawyer and political activist Cheyenne Hunt-Majer, who goes by the username cheyenne.l.hunt, some have criticized her professional uniform.

Cheyenne explained that she is about six feet tall, which she said makes clothes fit her body a little differently than some.
Nevertheless, many people, specifically other women, have allegedly made derogative or misogynistic comments toward her about her outfit choices.
“It’s worth mentioning that every derogatory comment about my clothing has always come from other women,” Cheyenne wrote in the caption for the video.
“Misogynistic dress codes are a HUGE issue in the legal profession and in politics as well.”
Cheyenne continued, “I’m around 6 ft tall, so be kind and be aware that clothes fit every body type differently!”
In the video itself, Cheyenne sported what appeared to be a blue blazer with a matching blue skirt on the bottom, nude heels, and a black dress shirt as a base layer.
She then included the specific comments she has heard from peers in her industry as a Gen Z woman.
“I wouldn’t take you seriously,” one example read.
“You must not be a real lawyer,” was another.
Others allegedly said that Cheyenne should “be ashamed,” and that “women in politics should wear pants.”
Despite these negative comments that Cheyenne has supposedly heard about her style as a lawyer, many were quick to support her in the comments on the video.
“Don’t ever change your style. It’s already professional,” one TikToker noted.
“You are professional and stylish, [I don’t know] what peoples’ problem is,” another said.
One commenter even explained that they too are about six feet tall and struggle to find professional skirts that don’t appear short.
“As a fellow 6′ girly who also loves skirts, I feel you,” they explained.
Cheyenne replied that the skirt in the video has a lengthened inseam but it still appears to be short to some.
However, Cheyenne certainly isn’t the only woman that has been dress coded or criticized for her professional style in the workplace.
The U.S. Sun has the story of a woman who was dress-coded on her first day of work for being too ‘top-heavy.’
Additionally, the U.S. Sun has coverage of a woman who was allegedly dress-coded at her job in healthcare for wearing leggings.
