Sexual harassment must be pervasive and offensive. It cannot occur just once.
Your employer may have stated that your pants were too tight based on a complaint from a customer or for other business reasons.
If the comments continue about your clothes or other appearance you should file a complaint with the Human Resources Department.
You should also inquire whether other employees have been subjected to the type of comment you were subjected.
