Debrahlee Lorenzana

Debrahlee Lorenzana(1977- present) is a a financial-services professional who was fired from her job held at the Chrysler Building branch of Citigroup after she was warned repeatedly that her clothes were too distracting, tight, and inappropriate. In turn, Lorenzana has filed a lawsuit against Citigroup alledging that she was fired Lorenzana's "as a result of the shape of her figure, such clothes were purportedly 'too distracting' for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear." The lawsuit, however, has come to a halt as Lorenzana can't sue Citibank because of an arbitration clause in her company agreement, and instead the matter will be resolved in an arbitration hearing.
Citigroup has responded by stating "Ms. Lorenzana has chosen to make numerous unfounded accusations and inaccurate statements against Citibank and several of our employees. While we will not discuss the details of her case, we can say that her termination was solely performance-based and not at all related to her appearance or attire. We are confident that when all of the facts and documentation are presented, the claim will be dismissed."
