The Change lingerie shop in Sweden swears it had only the best of intentions in telling female staffers to wear their bra size on a badge. It would help customers gauge their own size, demystify the process, etc. The Swedish Labour Court, however, found that it did something else entirely: violated workers' dignity. The court sided with a woman who sued and ordered the chain to pay her about $8,000, plus legal fees, reports Australia's News Network. "I didn't do this for the money," she tells the Local of Sweden. "I did it to put my foot down and tell them enough is enough." (More bras stories.)
