Risqué fast food restaurant Hooters has caused a stir after revealing an updated uniform for staff - featuring super-skimpy shorts.

The new dress code was introduced this month and prompted some waitresses to post about it on TikTok.

“So, this is what I’m supposed to be wearing... and I hate it,” 22-year-old Hooters bartender Kirsten Songer said while posting a before-and-after clip on the platform.

“The new black shorts, they do not have a bottom, they have a crotch string. So they sit like this... oh look, a wedgie!

“There is no longer anything covered by these shorts. And this is what the problem with the new shorts is, this is why all of the Hooters girls are upset. Because this is not what I agreed to wear a year ago when I was hired.”

Although the previous uniform did feature short shorts, the new ones are even shorter.

Songer—who went viral back in July for posting videos showing how she fakes cleavage for work despite having AA-cup breasts— wore her old and new shorts to show the apparent differences in the design.

Reply to @kat.abrramo so here’s what they look like on! I had to use a tape measure for my sizing and then I still couldn’t get them off after this video :) #uniform #hooters #shorts #hooterstiktok #college #waitress #restaurant #hootersgirledition #OneSliceChallenge

Waitress Giselle Nguyen, 20, from Texas, filmed herself holding up her old and new shorts, while asking: ‘What’s that supposed to fit?!’ She then posted a before and after video to show the difference with the new uniform.

Another used some dubbed sound to joke that she should quit her job.

Someone else posted a video wearing them - but added a caption saying they weren’t as bad as everyone else was suggesting.

Two Hooters waitresses, one who goes by @eastenciera and the other @katherinenicole830 on TikTok, posted a video of themselves saying that the shorts went from “PG” to “porn.”

Hooters' was founded by six men in 1983 and became infamous for hiring women to serve predominantly male customers while modeling cleavage-baring tank tops and T-shirts.
