Molly begins Dress Coded: a Podcast, where students share their experiences and together try to challenge the rules. It’s the latest example of the school’s unfair rules, which target young women (“the girls with boobs and butts, the prettiest girls, and the girls with long legs”) and fail to account for socioeconomic and other circumstances that can make the code challenging to adhere to. Everyone blames Olivia, but she’d only removed her sweatshirt to cover a period blood stain on her white jeans. When Olivia Bonaventura, a girl in Molly Frost’s eighth grade class, is dress coded for wearing a tank top with spaghetti straps, it results in the class camping trip being canceled.
