NEW YORK - A curvaceous banker is suing her former employer Citigroup for wrongful dismissal, claiming she was fired because she was too attractive. Ms Debrahlee Lorenzana, 33, claimed her former bosses told her that as a result of the shape of her figure, her clothes were purportedly too distracting for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear, the Village Voice reported. They banned her from wearing turtlenecks, pencil skirts, fitted suits and three-inch heels, the report quoted her as saying. Ms Lorenzana, who is 1.65m tall and weighs 56kg, was hired in September 2008. She said she never showed too much skin and always dressed professionally, according to the New York Daily News. But she conceded that she had to face harassment her entire life because her body \"drives men wild\", the report said. Citigroup said the suit was without merit and declined to discuss her work performance.
