I work at Hooters – the strict uniform rules apply to our bras, here’s what is & isn’t allowed

A HOOTERS employee has revealed the strict uniform rules employees must follow - even down to what bras they can wear.

Andrea Rae shared a video on YouTube showing how she gets ready for a shift at Hooters.

The waitress revealed that not only must staff wear the iconic Hooters shirt and orange shorts, but they must even follow company rules for their underwear.

Andrea revealed that waitresses were supposed to wear nude color bras that did not show through the tight white shirts.

"It's supposed to be nude, no beads, no lace. It's supposed to be really flat," she said.

"Simple, no like polka dots poking out, obviously. Also, you don't want to wear a white bra because white bras will show more.

"So nude is the way to go," Andrea said.

Another important uniform rule was about the Hooters shirt which she said should not be too tight.

"You want to make sure you get your shirt in the right size. I take XS. I believe there are small and XXS. I'm right in the middle," she said.

She added that the same rule applies to the shorts.

Andrea said: "You want to make sure there's a little bit of room there. You don't want it skin-tight."

To avoid showing creases of the shirt when tucked in the shorts, she said you have to wear pantyhose.

"When you first put on your nylons, you're gonna pull them up real high," she said.

"You want to essentially fold the nylons down and tuck the shirt to where the shorts' band would cover them."

She added that the pantyhose must be in tan color.

"Any time there's a hole, a rip, anything like that, you have to change them out. It's really important," Andrea emphasized.

Andrea said she loves her job, so she wants to look the best when going on her shift.

She said Hooters employees should also be getting two pairs of shorts, two shirts, and two pairs of nylons when they first start.

That way, it's easier to alternate without too many washes.
