Rivas filed a harassment complaint with her company's HR department. Her boss then sent out a memo that stated a new dress code that bans " [visible bra] straps, hats, sandals, cleavage, back out, lace, and even...cultural head wraps."

She's is not the first woman of color to be targeted for a hairstyle, either. For instance, one Zara employee posted about her experience after two managers told her to take out her braid and "fix" her hair into a straightened up-do. And a waitress in Toronto was sent home because she kept her hair in a tight bun when working.

Rivas reported her boss to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, but while they investigate, she intends to comply with her boss's demands, and it just so happens she has the perfect wardrobe thanks to her love of cosplay.

We thought Rivas looked great in a suit, but we're seriously digging all these dress code-approved looks.
