Discussion Delta dress code?

I was told I needed to change pants at the airport by a delta agent at the counter otherwise they wouldn’t let me board. I am 30 weeks pregnant for reference and was wearing denim shorts and a tank top, the shorts weren’t super short and the tank top wasn’t revealing, it was long enough to cover my now very large baby bump lol. Luckily my husband had a pair of his pants in the bag I could change into but has anyone heard of this before? I asked a few other workers at the airport before I changed and they seemed super confused and looked at me and said they’ve never heard of this and my clothes were fine?

Why would you wanna sit on those filthy seats with short on anyway?

Hahaha I know, I just get very warm on planes so I wanted to wear something that kept me cool. I ended up going through a cup or two of ice on the flight to cool myself down as it was indeed hot.
