Ruby Rose, one of australia’s best known Lesbians, apparently upset one of Australia’s best known airlines, Qantas.
It was reported that she got into a quarrel with Qantas staff after being refused access to a business class seat for breaching the airline dress code.
The DJ, MTV presenter and rookie fashion designer, was wearing clothing she personally created for boutique label Milk and Honey.
After returning from LA early on Sunday morning, airport sources witnessed an “argument” between Rose and some Sydney staffers while she checked in for a flight to Perth, where she was to promote her apparel. Qantas deemed the pants were inappropriate. Apparently Rose had been upgraded on the staff benefits of a friend, and was not a full fare paying passenger, which was why she was bound by dress restrictions.
Rose was wearing distressed denim jeans that appear in her Myer-stocked capsule collection but denied she was “throwing a wobbly”.
Her agent said
You can’t be upgraded in ripped denim, they were her Milk and Honey jeans [but] she ended up flying business. She did not feel she had a big fight with them [Qantas staff]
An airport source confirmed that
If you were a full-fare paying customer you could wear what you want, within reason
