If you took a full-frontal photo of her and then drew two bands that totaled 26 cm in height across the photo representing her clothing - she would be decently dressed (just!)

I would have expected perhaps a measurement in square centimeters. Or even in grams. But I applaud her for using metric units! Even if she had merely been facetiously using an invented measurement.
