Something like this ?
   

What I dit :
- Colours / Invert
- Add Alpha Channel
- copy layer and name it 'white' (or something else)
- on layer white use the Fuzzy Select Tool on the white area outside the clothes (Threshold value 22,5) 
- then : Select / Invert and delete the selected area
- on the original inverted layer : Colours / Color to Alpha

• Add an alpha channel if not there already
  
• Fuzzy select the background, normal threshold
  
• Select > Grow by one pixel
  
• Select > Invert
  
• Bucket-fill the selection with black in Color erase mode (see top of tool options)

Another solution is Colors > Color to Alpha move the Opacity Threshold slider to keep some blacks/grays/or only the whites
