Fashion is subjective, they say, but these outfits push the boundaries of what anyone could consider acceptable. From dresses that look like they’ve been attacked by a crafting store to outfits that seem to defy both gravity and common sense, we’ve collected the most jaw-dropping fashion choices that ever graced the internet. These aren’t just bad fashion choices – they’re conversation starters, laugh generators, and proof that sometimes confidence really can make you wear absolutely anything. Whether it’s wedding dresses that look like they were made from curtains or red carpet appearances that left critics speechless, these fashion disasters will make you feel infinitely better about your own wardrobe choices.

No Offense But She Kinda Looks Like a Jellyfish

We get it. Everyone wants to nail the Disney princess look. There’s just no getting around it – anyone who grew up on classic and timeless Disney films gets it. Unfortunately, their larger-than-life dresses often don’t translate too well into reality. Case in point – this photograph right here. While this person may have had a vision and the best of intentions, reality disappointed her and truly did her dirty.

So next time you feel like breaking out the Disney dress, you may want to reconsider. Unless you want to end up looking like a jellyfish, that is. That’s the hard truth.

This Makes Us So Uncomfortable

Oh dear lord, this dress makes us feel a lot of things we’d be better off not feeling. It gives us goosebumps, but not in an emotional and exciting way, but in a cosmic horror, we’re scared of the incomprehensible kind of way. We’re not sure who’s more to blame here – the person who designed this dress, or the person who voluntarily wore it. Either way, we hope neither of them did it again.

This is also an interesting choice of clothing to wear when you have a tattoo kind of awkwardly right where the hole in your dress is.  Like, we’re getting the urge to center the tattoo. The asymmetry is haunting.

Why Would Anyone Add Groping Hands to a Dress?

Now, this is one of those dresses that seems more like an art project than an actual piece of clothing that somebody would wear. We do feel as though a large part of clothing is keeping things off our bare skin, such as dirt, wild animals, and the outside world at large. So it may just be a bit defeatist to have a dress littered with groping hands. It just seems to defeat the purpose of clothing.

On the other hand, maybe this is an evocative piece of art that’s supposed to make us think of the purpose of clothing and subvert the way we usually think about things. Then again, maybe not.

The Good Old Gift Wrap Look

This is the type of dress that doubles as a last-minute gift wrap for your last-minute Christmas gift that you completely forgot to until the day of your family get together. Either that, or it’s some weird microwave popcorn, tinfoil, outer space dress that we’re not sure how one is supposed to make heads or tails of. Seriously, what is that and what the heck is it made out of?

And on a completely different (yet related) note: Why would somebody make that? Like, this obviously wasn’t meant to be worn, so why bother making the dress? People do weird stuff sometimes.

It Doesn’t Get Any Cringier Than This

Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox’s relationship may just go down as one of the most embarrassingly cringe love affairs of the 21st century unless they somehow redeem themselves and actually become likable. Only time will tell if that will happen but until then, there are a few things we can know for certain – like the fact that Megan Fox’s dress is, for lack of a better term, revealing.

While we’re at it, we might as well also point out Machine Gun Kelly’s red suit. Like, we wouldn’t say it looks bad, but it definitely is kind of cringe all things considered.

This Is What Eco-Friendly Fashion Means

This is the kind of future that Greta Thunberg, the Swedish high schooler turned eco-activist. imagined. This photo depicts the co-existence of humans and nature (specifically plant life) in previously unimagined ways. Yes, this photograph may hold the key to a greener, more eco-friendly way of life: All we have to do is stick a bunch of plants to our bodies and call it a dress. That’ll surely do something.

We also can’t ignore the bling on this gal, either. Those diamonds are sparkling. Heck, they’re even dancing! Look at them go! This person has definitely got some pizzazz. That’s for certain.

One Word: Why?

Woah, hold up. Whoever designed this dress should definitely give himself a long, hard look in the mirror and ask himself the simple question: Why did I make this? This dress is giving off some strong Alien (the movie) vibes. Maybe it’s just our twisted brains, but we’re definitely expecting a horrific extra-terrestrial being to jump out of that hole in the dress. It just looks as though this dress was made for those kinds of things.

Okay, but even if an alien doesn’t come out of there, this dress is still pretty unnerving. It just has a very unsoothing quality to it that is hard to put our finger on.

Somebody Call PETA

These two definitely went all out with these dresses. The only thing they might want to reconsider is their choice of events. It’s as they say – you have to dress for the part. And sometimes, dressing for the part means not overdressing or underdressing for the setting. We think this is one of those cases in which the people in question definitely did more than they were required to do.

They just stick out like a sore thumb when compared to all those people in classic formal clothing behind them. Maybe that was their intention, but it’s still kind of funny to us.
