Below, a few of our favorite styles and honest customer reviews: Great for fallOne five-star reviewer wrote: "Perfect style for this time of year when weather can be a bit unpredictable and it isn't quite warm enough for a sun dress, but a winter dress isn't appropriate. Material was great quality for the price. Had to travel for an occasion and dress did not wrinkle in garment bag. Colors very true to what is depicted online. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable and wearable option that can be dressed up for special occasions or dressed down for work or dinner...two big thumbs up!" Fits true to sizeOne five-star reviewer wrote: "Great dress! I'm 5'4", D cup, with a booty and a little extra love around the middle. I purchased the black in an XL. This dress doesn't have much give as it's a chiffon material, but it fit my chest and curves wonderfully while minimizing any problem areas I'd prefer to hide. Length fell right above my knee. Will be wearing for an upcoming bachelorette party in New Orleans. Pairing with some fun shoes and a statement necklace!" Nice qualityOne five-star reviewer wrote: "I am very happy with this purchase. It was shipped immediately and arrived as expected. The quality of the dress is great and the fit was exactly as I wanted it to be. I would order from this seller again." FlatteringOne five-star reviewer wrote: "Literally just as pictured.

Can employers make female employees wear a bra? Ask HR - USA TODAY Posted: 17 Dec 2019 12:00 AM PST
Johnny C. Taylor Jr., a human resources expert, is tackling your questions as part of a series for USA TODAY. Taylor is president and CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management, the world's largest HR professional society. The questions are submitted by readers, and Taylor's answers below have been edited for length and clarity. Have a question? Do you have an HR or work-related question you'd like me to answer? Submit it here. Question: I work in retail, and, recently, one of my large-chested co-workers was told she needs to wear a bra to work. Many of our colleagues don't, including the entirety of the male staff but also some smaller-chested females. Our handbook states that shirts must be the correct color, have sleeves, and cannot be low-cut, see-through, or bare midriff. It doesn't mention undergarments. Can our company force women to wear undergarments, and, if it can, shouldn't the policy be the same for both sexes? – Meghan Johnny C. Taylor Jr.: Meghan, this might surprise you, but employers are generally allowed to set different dress codes for men and women. Here's the thing: When it comes to sex discrimination, gender-based dress and appearance policies are one area where the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the courts allow employers to treat men and women differently. Where the courts have drawn the line, however, is when a heavier burden is placed on one sex than on the other. For example, your employer likely wouldn't be allowed to list 10 different dress code policies for women and only 2 for men. That said, you should expect some differentiation. Company dress codes may allow women to wear makeup but prohibit men from doing the same. Or, consider fingernails: Men are often required to keep their nails neatly trimmed and polish-free, while women are permitted to have long, painted nails. In some industries, it is standard practice for men to wear ties, while women wear skirts and dresses, but not the other way around. What isn't common is forcing one gender to dress business formal, while the other dresses business casual. Employers should generally adopt a neutral approach. At a fundamental level, organizations implement dress codes to display a certain image to clients, customers or constituents – that is, a look of professionalism. Whether we like it or not, "professional" means a clean and presentable image, and the presence or absence of undergarments can affect that image. I'll leave you with this – you are an extension of the organization's brand and values. So, when you look your best, your employer does, too. Q: I was recently subpoenaed to testify in my local district court. My employer said I'd have to use vacation time to comply with the court's request. That doesn't seem right, because attendance is mandated by a governmental entity, backed by punishment for not appearing. Can my employer do this?" – Anonymous Taylor: Yes, it's possible your employer can require you to use vacation time to comply with a court request. However, that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. Generally, employers should support employees aiming to comply with court subpoenas because, as you mentioned, they're mandatory. But while employers may have to provide time off for court appearances, they are not always obligated to provide paid time off. That said, many do. My advice is to check your company's policies and procedures. If you are still unsure, you should consult your human resources department to clear up any confusion. Typically, paid time off for court appearances can range from a few days to weeks at a time. Employers will often ask for a copy of the subpoena for documentation, and then process pay according to their leave and paid-time-off policy. You should also understand that your employer's policies on this issue could depend on state law. Many states have court attendance, witness and/or victim leave laws. Some of these laws require employers to provide unpaid time off for court appearances, while others say employers can't force an employee to use their paid leave (like vacation/PTO) for court obligations. One state, Georgia, requires employers to pay employees their full salary for court appearances by subpoena and jury duty. Finally, I want to share that based on federal law, employers are not allowed to reduce a salaried worker's earnings due to partial workweek absences based on court appearances. So, if you're a salaried employee, then you should be protected from docked pay. Still, you won't know for sure until you check your company's policies. Do your due diligence before pursuing any action. More likely than not, HR will have the answer to your question.
