SHE thought she looked cute as she headed out in her patterned wrap dress.
But Adriana quickly found herself slammed for the ensemble, as an old woman took aim at its plunging neckline.

In a video on TikTok, Adriana explained that she’d been minding her own business when the elderly lady snapped at her to “put them away”.
“Ma’am, we are in a recession,” she said in the video.
“Everyone is miserable.
“I am doing a public service by looking this good!”
“A plunging neckline is the least of society’s problems right now,” Adriana added in the caption.
“I’m out here making people’s day!
“Y’all ain’t fun.”
Speaking to the Daily Mail Online, Adriana insisted she thought the dress was “far from vulgar”, but realises you “can’t please everyone”.
“I’m used to people commenting on my body, it has happened frequently since puberty,” she added.
“I have always stood out due to being tall and curvy… it’s a lot rarer for people to be rude about my appearance in person, but it’s definitely happened.”
And commenting on the TikTok video, people were quick to reassure Adriana that she should wear exactly what she wants.
“I say show them off!!” one wrote.
“You’re gorgeous!”
“As a lesbian we thank you for your public service,” another joked.
With Adriana replying: “It is an honour and a privilege to serve!
“Perhaps I should run for office.”
What’s the best style that suits everyone?
ACCORDING to the fashion pros at Fabulous, there’s a new style of dress that suits all body shapes.
Low-slung, dropped-waist silhouette styles have surged, thanks to the Noughties fashion trend that has swept the catwalks, social media and, of course, the high street.
First seen on the runways of luxury labels Molly Goddard and Jil Sander, the style typically cinches around the hip and pelvic area rather than the waist.
Now a plethora of more affordable options of the dress that suits a number of body shapes have dropped just as the sun starts to come out.
Clemmie Fieldsend, Fashion Editor, said: “There’s something so stylish about these dresses, and I love them.
“The simplicity of the top half teamed with the full skirt is like a sleeker and more grown-up tutu.
“I have a short torso so the dropped waist makes my body look longer, but, thankfully, the long skirt means your legs don’t look shorter.
“Plus it means I can tap into the low-waist trend without baring all in a pair of low-slung jeans.
“I know I’ll be living in mine all summer, paired with black sandals and sunnies, but for now all I need is a blazer slipped over the top and a closed-toe shoe and I’m ready to go.”
Meanwhile, Fashion Director, Tracey Lea Sayer, added: “I remember dropped-waist dresses from the 80s. I loved them then and I still love them again now!
“Forty years on from when they were first popular and I am not so sure they will be quite as flattering around my middle, because two kids and middle-aged spread later, my waist doesn’t exist any more.
“With a dress like this I can disguise my middle bit and still feel on trend for summer.”
“As a straight married female …… I appreciate your service because the girls are GIRLING,” a third weighed in.
“Just tell them ‘merry Christmas, enjoy the jingle bells’,” someone else suggested.
“I would’ve asked her why she’s looking at my girls in the first place!” another admitted.
“Jealousy is a curse! You look fantastic!” someone else agreed.
As another wrote: “Please do not put them away, girl you do whatever makes you feel good!”

And Adriana insisted she won’t be letting the comments get her down.
“At this stage in my life, I’m secure enough to understand that it is always a reflection on that person’s insecurity far more than it is a reflection of the person being trolled or heckled!” she said.
