20 Crimes Against Fashion That Are Both Hilarious And Horrible

Fashion is subjective. You'll never get everybody to agree that something looks good. That said, you can sometimes get everybody to agree that something looks awful.

The items in this list will probably make you feel a little bit better about wearing sweats today.

"Seen at Buenos Aires Fashion Week."

Reddit | biomarino13

Anyone remember Super Mario Bros 2? No? Well, uh, this is awkward. But there was a boss in that game named Birdo. It would spit eggs out of its weird mouth. This sweater thing looks exactly like Birdo.

"If you can’t figure out what to wear, just wear the bag."

I can see a certain retro appeal in the generic hangers you get from the dry cleaner, but basing an entire outfit around it seems like a bit of a stretch.

"You no longer must choose between jeans and tutus."

Reddit | tornessa

I think this would look at least five percent less ridiculous if the pants component of these outfits was sweatpants rather than jeans. The clash of denim and tutu is just, well, a lot.

"From the fashion runways of London."

Reddit | momosug

Clearly there's a fashion designer out there who's trying to bring the medieval jester look back into vogue. Only time will tell if the huge, inflatable striped pants trend manages to stick or if it stays relegated to history.

"These 8-inch heels by Christian Louboutin."

Reddit | karynisawesome

There's an argument to be made that even low-key high heels are a bad idea, just for what they do to the wearer's feet. To wear these, though, I think surgical alteration to the feet might be required.

"Iris Van Herpen for the Legend of Korra remake."

Reddit | Litt_Romney

The model's dress looks pretty typical for the runway, but I'm not sure about the splash effect that surrounds her. There's a reason people don't attach plastic wrap to their everyday outfits.

"Water you looking at?"

Reddit | thisisyourreward

There's a certain appeal to a suit that enables the wearer to float in the ocean while they listlessly stare at the sky, but this looks like it would get very hot very fast. At least remove the sleeves.

"NY Fashion Week: COVID edition. If I gotta wear a mask, might as well be extra."

Reddit | Hazys

This is, in fact, extra, so OP's caption is entirely correct. If I saw her in the street, I'd think I had run into some supervillain from the future.

"Italian beachwear by Cappello Cabina, 1967."

Reddit | Plethorian

I don't know if Pixar will ever make a cute movie about sentient candy corn with a heart of gold, but if they do, I think they've got their reference photo right here.

"I unironically love both outfits. Left is perfect for when you can't decide on whether to be cute or punk."

Reddit | [deleted]

OP provided some thoughts on the outfit on the left, but what about the one on the right? They look like a police sketch of a murderer.

"Hoarding ponies in a raincoat. It's a look now."

Reddit | InsomniacMcGee

People often complain that women's garments are severely lacking in pockets compared to what men typically wear. I think this coat represents a bold new step in giving women the pockets they need.

"Wouldn’t want all that glute work in the gym to go unnoticed."

Reddit | kazarooni

Chaps are an awesome thing to wear if you're a legit cowboy. If you're a fashion model or literally anyone else, I think the utility of such a garment is questionable.

"Taking bed head to the next level."

Reddit | snorlaxlover123

This looks ridiculous, but it also looks a lot like me when I don't want to get out of bed on a chilly morning. Why not just take the bed with you for a full day of cozyness?

"Winter is coming..."

Reddit | adrianoouk

Puffy jackets are a brilliant invention: they keep the wearer warm, and the lush puffyness adds a feeling of comfort and security. For these reasons, I'm going to try not to judge this ridiculous coat too harshly.

"'There’s a lot to be angry about and this garment will communicate exactly that.' Victor and Rolf autumn/winter 2020."

Reddit | TheBrontosaurus

Yes, there is a lot to be angry about, and after seeing this outfit, I'm adding one more thing to the list.

"By Jean-Paul Gaultier."

Reddit | Hazys

I did a double-take here because I assumed I was just looking at some kind of blow-up doll. But no, I regret to inform you that this is actually a real thing worn by a real model at a real fashion show.

"Cursed shirt."

Reddit | Patpatnotstar

That big knob looks so three dimensional and realistic that you'd swear it was real. Shame about the placement on the shirt, though. If this guy's a DJ, perhaps he can hide it behind his turntables.

"Not really 'crappy' but still."

Reddit | AlfredKC

Did the designer of this skirt think about what they were doing, or did they know exactly what they were doing? Honestly, I can see it going either way. In any event, this is a crime against fashion.

"But what is wrong with the world? The price tag is also interesting..."

Reddit | Aicyss

Putting aside the extravagant price and likely discomfort these shoes would cause, I want to point out that they look like absolute garbage. Did someone spray paint them or something?

"I wore this for a week."

Reddit | Ihatemornings434

This is cute: die at Rehoboth Beach and the gulls will fly around, picking at your bones. At least I think that's what the message is trying to communicate. Whatever's going on here, I like the aesthetic.
