Woman strips and uses dress as face mask to buy ice cream

A woman has stripped down to her underwear and attempted to use her dress as a face covering to get around an ice cream store’s mask mandate.

This ice cream lover has gelato chutzpah!

A woman in Argentina stripped down to her underwear and attempted to use her dress as a face covering to get around an ice cream parlour’s mask mandate, video shows.

“Don’t ask for my face mask, I’m putting it on,” she boldly tells the staff at the story in Godoy Cruz, a city in the western province of Mendoza, before she strips down, the New York Post reports.

The woman began undressing as a man, who was wearing a mask below the nose, and his three daughters, waited to order their own dessert. Picture: Australscope/Newsflash

The surveillance footage also shows a man approach the counter with his three daughters as the comical scene unfolds.

Even though he wears a mask below his nose, the father is allowed to place his order – while the half-naked woman tries to tie her black dress around her face.

The man quickly adjusts his mask to also cover his nose to avoid not following the policy.

Meanwhile, the woman is refused service and storms out of the store.

Local news outlet Cronica reported that the woman, who was with a group of about 10 other people, finally managed to get her sweet treat when one of them secured a mask.
