A Reddit user posted her outfit featuring the Mount Elizabeth hospital gown in the R/Streetwear subreddit on April 15.

Her post garnered a lot of upvotes on Reddit, with many being amused by her gown transformation.

Fast forward to a week and half later, the user, who goes by the handle Geometrieva, received a surprise package from Mount Elizabeth.

Greeting card, tea, straws and a surprise

She posted in a new Reddit thread that Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital had sent a package to her.

The parcel, according to her Instagram stories, included a greeting card, premium tea bags, brass straws, and... hospital gowns.

Seems like even the most unexpected things could be turned into trendy fashion choices.

Cool.
