AN etiquette expert has told you how to properly go down the stairs while wearing a dress to avoid tripping or ruining the hem.
TikToker Sofia Li, known as @sofia.marbella, posts videos on proper etiquette and says it’s essential not to hold up a dress too high.

Instead, she said in a recent videowant to bend your knees and grab the skirt with both hands on either side.
She called the advice a general tip for women’s etiquette and captioned the video: “etiquette elegant woman.”
One commenter wrote: “Dear videos! Thank you! Got to watch so many, including myself.”
While many others also thanked her for sharing the tip, not all of her followers were impressed.
“I thought this was common sense,” one person commented.
“I think we all learned this by watching Disney princesses grow up,” said another.
“This gives me such rich auntie vibes,” a third shot back.
“How do people not know this?” said a fourth.
The video has been viewed more than 1.7 million times.
In another video, Li gives advice to men and tells them to always be the first when they enter through a revolving door so they can push their female partners.
“Gentlemen should definitely go first,” reads the on-screen caption in the video.
In her other videos, Li makes it clear that men should always enter an establishment first.
Commentators complained about the tip, which they said had sexist undertones.
“etiquette = completely arbitrary rules of courtesy that are not necessary in any way these days,” complained one commenter.
“God gave me TWO hands so I can push the door myself,” said another.
But not every viewer felt the same.
“Ppl is so upset in this comment section. This practice uses the traditional values of etiquette and has nothing to do with equality,” wrote a TikToker.
“times change, my dear!” commented another person.
The revolving door etiquette video has been viewed more than 3.1 million times.
