ok im gonna be really unpopular here and buck the trend…im not gonna give you encouragement, im not gonna commiserate, im not gonna be righteously indignant…im gonna ask you three simple questions.
1) were you aware that your style of dress would be out of line
2) if yes, did that knowledge make you constantly self conscious and give you the feeling that everyone was pointing and staring
3) if you answered yes to either of the above two questions…what on earth did you expect
whether or not the person who said something is right is absolutely irrelevant beause the problem is not them…the problem is you, and placing blame on them, again whether they are right or wrong, is your way of justifying what may or may not have been wrong on your part. so yes, they may have been wrong, but how is it relevant? you may be working on yourself and your tznius and that is indeed very commendable in an age when the world is trying to expose more if itself than cover up, but if you want to be in certain circles with all the requisite social norms and practices, then be prepared for the consequences of deviating. dont get angry or upset when people call you on it.
