Albania appears to be a particular hotbed for this trend, with prominent presenters like Enki Bracaj and Greta Hoxa known for their overtly revealing attire, sometimes including broadcasting without underwear. A YouTube channel even exists dedicated to showcasing these presenters. The frequent use of vests, worn without additional undergarments to emphasize cleavage, is a common practice on Albanian television.
In Italy, Paola Ferrari, a 61-year-old sports presenter for RAI TV, became embroiled in controversy in 2021. A short video clip of her presenting the Euro 2020 commentary program showed her in a pose that led viewers to speculate about her undergarments. While Ferrari denied any wrongdoing, the incident ignited significant debate and highlighted the sensitive nature of these choices in a broadcasting context.
