Singapore – On April 15, a Redditor posted an outfit featuring a hospital gown that garnered over 19,000 upvotes. The gown used was from Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital where the lady, who goes by the handle Geometrieva, went for a checkup.

Almost two weeks later, Geometrieva posted a WDYWT (What Did You Wear Today) update which said, “My MRI results arrived… it’s a gown! They actually gave me the gown, guys!!”

“This package arrived at the office today, addressed to me,” wrote Geomtrieva in imgur.

It was only natural that Geometrieva went right into modelling her new items. See her latest Instagram posts below:

She thanked Reddit for making the gowns famous which made the hospital see her streetwear. “Reddit you did it!!! You made the gown famous, so Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital saw the post and mailed their gowns to me!” said Geometrieva. “I owe you guys! I hereby swear to repay my debt by posting a f*ckton of gown outfits on my Instagram,” she added.

She also mentioned that her MRI turned out fine. “Life is great.”

Netizen VioletLword commented on how Geometrieva’s pictures should be used in the changing rooms of the hospital for patient reference.
