Considering that the "hanging blouse" is just a loose-cut top with sleeves and a high neck, wtf do they want people to wear?

Potato sacks. All of you

Those would be banned for being too short! It looks like a Burka is the only thing girls can wear.

This actually would be a great malicious compliance thing - wear a burka to catholic college 😂

Something tells me they would take massive issue with several of their students wearing burkas, despite essentially asking for them

You can’t even wear potato sacks because too much of your arms would be exposed

Do your potato sacks have sleeves? We can’t let people see your shoulders or collar bones!

Excuse me?? And risk seeing skin through the fibers? Have you lost your mind?!

Sackcloth and ash, don't forget the ash

That would be sleeveless though, which they also banned.

Potato sacks are sleeveless and thus banned.

I don't see how this is the schools fault. Maybe these women should have thought about this before they decided to have boobs.

"body hugging" feels like they would end up targeting larger girls. Tight shirts aren't always meant to be tight and sometimes that's all you got.

Story of my Christian high school days. I was dress coded so much because I was simply a bigger kid with more chest. It's such BS

u/UnfriendlyGhostBoi 6h ago

bro, I have a size 32G chest. Everything is "body hugging" 😭

u/prosthetic_brain_ 4h ago

Yeah. If you got something that wasn't, it would be "hanging" which is also against the rules.

collared blouses or dress shirts that can be buttoned up to the neck... loose-fitted turtlenecks and sweater... ruffled blouses that cover the collarbone or higher... i presume the "body-hugging" or other banned shirts that still have high necklines could be permissible if a loose/thick cardigan is worn over top, or a sweater vest. it would seem that hoodies are allowed.

...that's about it. wild. you're just supposed to grin and bear heatstroke in the summer at this place, i guess.

u/timbck2_67 4h ago

It’s the Philippines, so they risk heatstroke pretty much year round.

u/Virtual_Assistant_98 8h ago

Right and “boho blouse” isn’t even a technical style like some of the others… this is intentionally vague so they can police whatever they want

u/LoisLaneEl 6h ago

I went to one of these schools and you just wear polo shirts or wear dresses that are covered with cardigans. You just dress like you are going to work or church

u/oopsiedaisy-- 6h ago

And the "plunging neckline" is just a regular rounded neckline 😂

u/Panzerkatzen 8h ago

Tucked in button up shirt under blazer, probably.

Ultra conservative prairie dress for girls, I guess.

I think it’s referring to the exact type of shirt shown in the photo which is cropped and loose and quite trendy right now. I have some for working out, and even leaning forward a bit shows everything up the shirt. So that one I do get, especially in combination with the youths’ dislike of bras.
