Self control can be practiced. Do not blame her for waring a tank top. It's better to try to grow as a person and not remove everything that challenges your personality from your surroundings.

Also she has freedom too. A tank top is not out of the ordinary.

If I stop wash and I will smell bad. Should I ask my colleagues to develop self-control and just ignore my smell?

If something is distracting for people around you, it is very selfish to ask them to change.

By distracting things I mean things that are rooted in our biology. Not things that are opinion based.

Given that there are more physiological indicator that a person doesn't wash themselves, let alone there is a legitimate impact on health and safety when someone refuses to do so, it should be clear that this is not even close to being an apples to apples comparison.
