A TikToker says she spent $1,000 on a micro-miniskirt that she can’t even sit down in, and viewers are baffled by the trend

Adrienne Reau wears a $1,000 Diesel skirt in a TikTok video. Adrienne Reau/TikTok Style influencer Adrienne Reau has gone viral for buying a $1,000 micro-miniskirt online. She said the skirt is impractical, sized poorly, and that she was considering returning it.

But as of Friday, the influencer updated an Instagram post to say that she’d actually keep it. Designer fashion can be expensive, but one skirt has people questioning if high-end garments are worth the high price tags. On Monday, style influencer Adrienne Reau posted a TikTok video of herself opening a package she ordered from Diesel, an Italian clothing retailer.

Inside was a $1,000 micro-miniskirt, made from brown leather and stamped with the brand’s monogram. She styled the skirt with different outfits in the TikTok — which has been viewed more than 810,000 times as of Friday — and seemed to love it. But in a later video posted to TikTok on Wednesday, Reau revealed that she wasn’t entirely thrilled.

“Is Diesel gonna hate me if I post this?” she asked before saying she was disappointed by its packaging and materials. Her review has more than 3. 4 million views as of Friday.

She noted that though the skirt is made of leather, it felt more like “rubber. ” She also said the Velcro used to hold the skirt together “kind of brings down the quality,” and is visible when adjusted for larger sizes. “Maybe a few snap buttons would have been more high quality,” Reau said.
