(NEWSER) – Two Egyptian lawyers are taking an actress to court for the lacy, partly transparent outfit she wore on the red carpet in Cairo last week, the New York Times reports. Rania Youssef, who’s in her forties, could get five years in prison for her garb. “It was the first time that I wore it and I did not realize it would spark so much anger,” she wrote in a social media post, per the BBC. “I reaffirm my commitment to the values upon which we were raised in Egyptian society.” Samir Sabri, one of the lawyers who brought the case, says her outfit “did not meet societal values, traditions and morals” and undermined “the reputation of Egyptian women.”
