‘Hospital gown’ dress trolled by shoppers: ‘When you have surgery at 3 and happy hour at 5’
Haute is taking an unhealthy turn.
Not looking so hot is fashion’s hottest look thanks to “hospital gown” couture.
“Some outfits just make me feel like I’m that b- -ch,” said Izzy, a content creator, while rocking emergency room-inspired wear from bohemian clothier, Free People.
The loose-fitting finery, officially titled the “Organic Cotton Romper Chambray Combo,” features a printed fabrication, scoop neck and a keyhole cutout in its anterior — much like the dress doctors have patients slip into before sending them under the knife.
Online, it retails on reseller sites like EBay and PoshMark at prices ranging from $68 to $79.

“Why would a store sell a hospital gown for $68 — and better yet, who would wear it?,” mommy influencer Nicole Story Dent, wondered out loud in a video post. “And the answer is me.”
The brunette, a mother of two from Dallas, Tex., gave more than 956,000 cyber spectators a peak at her a wearing med-esque number from Ann Taylor Loft.
Dent cheekily paired the frock with a hospital bracelet, non-slip socks and a $297 pair of oversized white cotton bloomers from Revolve. The embroidered bottoms were reminiscent of the undies women wear after having a baby.
“Are they micro-short bloomers that cost over $200,” she asked, “or are they a postpartum diaper?.”
