woman fired for not wearing sexy uniform.

UK: Its not even that sexy or revealing like say a hooters uniform. But again I ask if it is against your religion or morals and the woman isn't flippin' blind. How about not saying yes to working there and go find another job. This sounds like a pure money grab.

A Muslim cocktail waitress who claims she was sacked for refusing to wearing an 'indecent' red dress is suing a bar for £20,000.

Fata Lemes, 33, said the figure-hugging scarlet dress made her look like a nightclub hostess and was 'physically revealing and openly sexual'.

Customers pestered her for sex while she was working at the upmarket Mayfair bar, she claimed, and managers ran it 'like a sex club'.

Miss Lemes said bosses at the Rocket bar allowed customers to think that 'waitresses could be treated as prostitutes'.

She is suing for sexual harassment and sex discrimination.

She said she was fired when she refused to wear the dress and is claiming £20,000 for injury to her feelings and lost earnings.

Miss Lemes, who is from Bosnia, told an employment tribunal she tried the outfit on and found it was 'physically revealing and openly sexual'.

She said: 'It was indecent. If you put this dress on, you might as well be naked.
'Everything finishes in the middle at the chest. It is open at the front and back. I
did not want men looking at my body. I was brought up a Muslim, and am not used to wearing sexually attractive clothes.'
