She Shamed A Girl Online For Copying The Prom Dress That Another Girl In Their Class Picked
A high school girl decided to create an Instagram account devoted to all the different prom dresses that the girls in her graduating class were planning on wearing to their upcoming prom.
She wanted this particular account to help make sure that none of the girls would copy one another for prom.
“The purpose of the Instagram was to post the girls’ dresses to insure people would steer clear of similar if not the same dress as someone else,” she explained.
So back in October of last year, a girl in her class named Libby posted a photo of her dress. Libby’s dress is royal blue colored and has a unique lace-up style back, a specific neckline, and a mermaid shape to it.
Another girl in her class named Sandy shared a photo of her dress on social media a few weeks ago; March 5th to be exact.
Now, Libby and Sandy’s dresses are not the same dress, but this girl thought that they looked “really similar.”
Sandy’s dress had the same color, neckline, and lace-up back that Libby’s did, and Sandy’s dress was also a mermaid style.
One of her classmates commented online about how Sandy’s dress looked way too much like Libby’s, and then more girls from her class started weighing in on the similarities.
“…I decided to comment on my personal account saying, “The point of the account is to make a sense of security for everyone and to prevent duplicate—similar or the same— dresses. If you get a dress later people should be doing their diligence to look at the Instagram,” she said.

“Someone else comments saying, “Everyone who is saying Sandy is a bad person for getting a damn dress should grow…up you are acting childish. Saying things like that isn’t fair. She bought the dress so it’s over and done with if you don’t like it it’s your own damn fault” to which I respond with, “No one is saying they are a bad person people are just pointing out how disappointing it is for there to be such similar dresses.”
Suddenly, Sandy commented on the post insisting that her dress wasn’t “the same dress” as Libby’s, but she did admit that it had the “same color, shape, and maybe figure.”
Some more girls from their class then called Sandy out for saying “conflicting” things about her dress and the closeness to Libby’s dress.
She was reading along with all of these comments and watched as Sandy then said that there were a couple of dresses in royal blue with the same kind of style on the Instagram account, and that really made her mad.
She told Sandy, “No actually there isn’t. There are royal blue dresses, yes, but Libby’s dress was the only dress with a lace-up back certain neckline, and a mermaid figure all together.”
“So you can’t deflect onto other people when you got a dress so similar to have the same neckline, back, silhouette, and color.”
Sandy is not able to just return her dress, and she definitely shamed Sandy for “copying” Libby in front of their entire class online.
She’s wondering if what she did was mean, though she doesn’t seem remorseful at all. What do you think?
