The government has launched an inquiry into office dress. This follows a petition signed by nearly 150,000 people protesting the decision to send receptionist Nicola Thorp home from work for refusing to wear stiletto heels. So what are our rights when it comes to office dress? Jenni Murray speaks to employment lawyer Yvonne Gallagher, Financial Times journalist and former trader Lucy Kellaway, and philosopher Shahidha Bari.
