Earlier this summer, Kyla Ebbert, a student at San Diego Mesa College, was escorted off a Southwest airplane by a customer-service supervisor who told her that her outfit was inappropriate. The ensemble in question? “A white denim miniskirt, high-heel sandals, and a turquoise summer sweater over a tank top over a bra,” according to
The San Diego Union-Tribune.
Ms. Ebbert eventually made it back onto the plane, where she covered her legs with an airline blanket, but only after putting up a fight.
On Wednesday a columnist for the
Union-Tribune recruited some “fashion advisers” to weigh in on Ms. Ebbert’s outfit, which she obligingly donned for the newspaper. Their verdict: “nothing you don’t see on a college campus.”
This is what she was apparently wearing.
