@ILive4Seddie I understand what you're saying, but I still don't think Victorious has crossed some sort of proverbial line. The characters occasionally wear revealing clothing. That's a normal part of life. This specific issue, I think, is only as significant as we make it out to be. Before this blog post was made, no one was complaining about any of the outfits worn by any of the characters on either show. The reason for this is because the show doesn't dwell on these sorts of things. They aren't attempting to be edgy or sexy, they're attempting to tell a funny little story and maybe give a few romantic cues and hints here and there. That's it. Therefore, what the characters wear (unless it directly attributes to the comedic nature of the show or is so disgustingly blatant that it draws a LOT of attention) shouldn't really be an issue.

I could sympathize with this view if this was something that happened in every single episode. But it doesn't. The characters have worn conservative jeans and dresses, and they've even downplayed their own attractiveness ("Freak the Freak Out"). They aren't revealing themselves every episode, and even when they do "reveal themselves" the show is able to entertain a vast majority of us so much that we don't dwell on that sort of thing.

And it's not like we're talking low-cut tops. We're talking short-shorts. That's hardly "slutty" even if it is a little revealing. There's a difference; a slight one, but it's there.

And lastly: I don't see any parents complaining about what the characters wear.
