It is perfectly reasonable for an employer to have a dress code, it is not reasonable for a dress code to conform to sexist stereotypes in an office! PwC are an auditing firm, not Hooters for crying out loud.
Guess what, that doesn't exist. If an actor required to wear heels on set, they will, after that, I'm sure they'll be free to swap.

Guess what, she agreed to the general dress code in the contract for the agency. It wasn't PwC that specified anything. The danger is that if you don't have specific dress codes, then anything goes.
