I’m a gym rat who’s thicker than a snicker – my gains caused an unfortunate mishap in my new Fashion Nova dress
A FASHIONISTA was shocked after suffering a wardrobe mishap when she ordered a new dress online.
Anita (@fashionbyanita) explained that her muscle growth had never been an issue before when shopping for clothes.
She has racked up over 167,000 followers on TikTok where she shares her love of style and sculpting her body.
She took to the social media platform to vent her frustration after trying on a dress bought from Fashion Nova.
At first glance, the sheer mini dress seemed to perfectly fit her and looked glamorous as she swept her braids over one shoulder.
However, she said: “Gym rat problems, fashion girl edition.
“This is the first time this has happened to me when that lat spread is so thick that your dress doesn’t want to close up.”
She sighed as she turned to reveal the back of her dress couldn’t zip to the top because of her bulging back muscles.
She captioned the post: “Bb. We thick!! One may even say…”
She included the hashtags #thickerthanasnicker, #gymratlife, #gymratproblems, #fashionfails, and #backgainz.
The post went viral with over 9,000 views and hundreds of likes.
One person wrote: “Nice problem to have.”
Another said: “Looks like progress to me [laughing].”
A third commented: “We shall mourn the loss of the dress & the gains of the back [laughing].”
A fourth chimed in: “Swole!!! Keep grinding.”
Another added: “It’s a good problem to have imo [in my opinion].”
Anita replied: “Hahaha it’s kind of a pain. Just a little bit but oh well.”
Anita wasn’t deterred from working out after the fashion failure and continued to post her intense sessions at the gym.
Her exhausting back workouts include lat pull-downs and shoulder presses.
She said that “every backless dress and top is that much more stunning” since she started training her back.
