A female reporter covering a murder trial was ordered out of court after turning up in gold sequinned 'disco pants'.
Laura McQuillan's ejection from Wellington High Court in New Zealand sparked an online debate over the rights and wrongs of wearing the trousers in court.
A registrar at Wellington High Court approached Miss McQuillan, 25, who works for NZ Newswire, while she was sitting in an area reserved for media and asked her to leave before the hearing broke for lunch.
Afterwards, Miss McQuillan, who describes herself on her Twitter page as 'Winner, Most Awesome Person of the Year, 25 years running', took to the site to defend the trousers, saying: 'I'm sitting under a table! No one even sees my legs!
