There’s a sexxy little black dress that a number of high profile women have come to wear at their high profile events. The Dress is just low cut enough that some tape has to be involved if these lovely women in question don’t want to pop out of their bodice.
Olivia Rodrigo is the most notable example of a famous woman wearing The Dress because she’s just barely 18. This led to much consternation on Tik-Tok by her well meaning fans who have gone to elaborate lengths to ascribe Ms. Rodrigo wearing The Dress to some nefarious plot of adults who just wanted to see her tits.
The Dress.
These Tik-Tokers point to a clip where Ms. Rodrigo is seen turning for a moment to talk to her stylist before turning around again for the press. Now, what *I* think was happening was not that she was upset with the dress, but she was feeling a little insecure that her boobs were on the verge of popping out and she didn’t want a wardrobe malfunction.
The thing I have to point out is — while I’m not a woman so I don’t know, I do know enough about history, status and women to tell that for some reason wealthy women have a different relationship to their boobs than poorer women do. For wealthy women, having the odd nipslip here or there is a flex. I will suggest you throw in how age works into all of this as well. Older women have zero fucks left and, for them, a bit of conspicuous T&A in public now and again makes them feel sexxy. (I presume.) And, even more importantly, I’m thinking in extremely broad terms.
There are plenty of older, wealthy women who are rather chaste –Alexa Chung, Julia Roberts and Emma Stone being prime examples of this.
But I’m a CIS white male who likes seeing boobs, so fuck you. (Wink)
