Female meteorologists across the country have created their own sisterhood of the traveling dress.
It all started in a private Facebook group for weather women who share tips of the trade as well as good deals on outfits — as most stations have very strict dress codes.
Bree Smith, a meteorologist at KSDK in Ohio, discovered a pencil dress on Amazon that was not only affordable — at just $22.99 — but also was made out of good-quality fabric, had bright colors and long sleeves.
She posted a link to the group and it took off shortly after.
To prove how great and universally flattering the dress was, a Texas-based meteorologist put together a collage of all the women wearing it and shared it on Facebook over the weekend.
“More than 50 of us purchased the dress, so if you travel and watch the news, you might see something familiar,” Jennifer Myers wrote in the post along with a photo of her wearing it in blue.
The image has since gone viral, sparking a new #TheDress hashtag following the color-changing cocktail dress that had people all over the world fighting about whether it was blue and black or white and gold.
“In case you were wondering…yes, I ordered the dress, too. Blue,” Kerrin Jeromin, a meteorologist in Florida, tweeted.
“Yes, I own #thedress!” Liz Dueweke wrote. “But at $23, I just couldn’t say no.”
The dress comes in seven jewel-toned colors and has a 4.5-star rating on Amazon, with many women commenting that it fit like a glove and shows off their curves.
“It’s risque because it’s form-fitting, but not trashy because I’m pretty well covered,” one woman wrote. “There’s enough cleavage and leg to keep things sexy, but I don’t feel like I’m on display.”
On Twitter, some of the meteorologists who purchased the dress pointed out that long-sleeved number looks similar to an outfit characters would wear on “Star Trek.”
“We’re all science geeks anyhow!” Randi Rico tweeted with a photo of herself wearing it in red.
The dress has had so much success that some meteorologists are worried they won’t have a chance to snag one before the weekend’s over.
“It’s getting too popular and will prob sell out by the time I get paid Friday!” Rachael Dierkes, a meteorologist with Ohio’s WTRF, tweeted.
