Sports coach Amandine Gaudin was shopping in Carrefour Etampes when she was "humiliated" by a security guard after a customer complained about her outfit.

In a Facebook post that has since gone viral, Amandine said: "I was doing my shopping quietly at Carrefour Etampes when the security manager came to see me...to warn me not to come back dressed like this.

"It was too bare for their taste.”

Her post included a picture of her posing in front of the store in a bright blue crop top and leggings.

Speaking to BFM, she said: "I was coming home from work and I decided to go shopping in preparation for my birthday.

"I was wearing sportswear, because of where I work.

"On this occasion I was wearing leggings and a sky blue sports bra.

"A manager then comes to see me and tells me that the next time, that I come to do my shopping in this store, it will be necessary that I wear another outfit, that I will have to cover myself more."

Amandine finished her shopping and asked to see the manager when she got to the till.

An employee then told her that her outfit was "too bare for their taste" and she would have to wear a T-shirt before going to to the store the next time.

She continued: "I have been shopping there for years and often wore that outfit without any problems.

"According to the manager it was a customer who saw me in the aisles that complained.

"I'm angry, it's unfair to be criticised on my outfit right after work.

"Does it mean that I'm in indecent dress at work if I'm to go by these criticisms?"

A Carrefour spokesman said: “After Saturday's incident, the store manager had a lengthy exchange with the client to apologise for the disproportionate reaction of her employee. This person deeply regrets his words.

“The supermarket chain adds that "the director has also re-trained all its employees so that it does not happen again."

Carrefour says there is no "regulation about the outfits to wear or not in the store".

Amandine said she contacted head office who apologised but says she won't be shopping there any more.
