Basically a character dressing in a manner that just doesn't fit the cultural norm for the character's age. It could be in clothing, hairstyle, makeup, or something else. The reasons can vary, although dressing up or costumes wouldn't count for this. This is more a character either not realizing how they look dressed like that, or maybe even trying to pretend they are a different age (either as a disguise, or as a denial about one's age). This can be justified when characters are Older Than They Look or Younger Than They Look, and dressing their actual age would look like this trope even though it isn't. A Super-Trope to Adults Dressed as Children. Compare Mistaken Age, Improbable Age, Dawson Casting and Age-Inappropriate Art. See also No Dress Code, I Was Quite a Fashion Victim. A common cause for a Parental Fashion Veto. |

Genshin Impact Fischl is heavily implied to be no older than a teenager. Yet her outfit appears to consist of what looks like some lingerine, a thigh high stocking on her left leg with a full legged stocking on her right, and a skirt that only covers her back. Diona’s outfit shows off her midriff, and she wears some very short shorts. Problem is, she’s younger than Fischl, being no older than a preteen. |

Toddlers & Tiaras is a reality show about beauty pageants for little girls, which shows them in outfits like bikinis, and them even getting spray tans. Already seen as more than a little unsettling, criticism of the show spiked noticeably when it featured a girl dressed in Julia Roberts' prostitute outfit from Pretty Woman. The mother defended it by claiming it wasn't as revealing as some of the other outfits in the competition, an argument that helps no-one. Said little girl was on again, the mother complaining about the backlash she'd gotten over the costume. What's the girl wearing this time? A crop top and a tulle, poofy black skirt, okay. Sure, the boots and stockings are a bit risque but it's not that bad... and then she rips the skirt off during the routine to showcase her underwear-like bottoms (that match the top) and garters. Yes, that was scripted, they practiced a lot. And she won. | |

Disgaea: Etna from Disgaea: Hour of Darkness wears a Stripperiffic black leather outfit, but is mentally and physically around 14 or so. Hanako from Disgaea 2 is only 9 years old, but the only thing she wears to cover her chest is a small white tube top. Note that once they meet, Hanako starts wanting to be more like Etna, which naturally horrifies her older brother. |

A massive complaint of the Boruto manga is just how sexualised Sarada's outfit is despite the fact she’s no older than 11. Notably, this isn't a issue in the anime, where she has an appropriate outfit similar what her mother Sakura wore in Part 1 of Naruto. | |

The Baby-Sitters Club: Mary Anne's father Richard, as part of his overprotectiveness and worry, picks out Mary Anne's clothes—she's only allowed to wear penny-loafers, jumpers and blouses, or dresses, and has to keep her hair in two Girlish Pigtails—specifically, two long braids. She's finally able to dress a little more "teenage" after Mary Anne Saves the Day, where she proves to him she's responsible enough to dress how she'd like to. It isn't given much of an in-depth description in but Stacey's swimsuit in the second book might count. It's mentioned that "it was skimpy (and we're talking ''very'' skimpy) and yellow, with tiny bows at the side of the bottom part". Claudia even mentions that "the top part was filled out pretty nicely". |

Ironically, Lisa's red dress might be considered age-inappropriate to some, due to being strapless. |

Where Are the Children?: When she was married to Carl, Nancy often wore "childish" dresses that looked more like something a young girl would wear. Nancy recalls that when her mother came to visit her while she was still dating Carl, Priscilla was put-off by the dress Carl had picked out for her, remarking "Isn't it a bit...young?" (Nancy was 18 at the time). Nancy admits she hated wearing these dresses but did it because Carl liked it. Upon being widowed and getting out of prison, the first thing she bought herself was a tweed suit and she now dresses in a more mature style. Considering that Carl was a pedophile, it's obvious why he liked Nancy to dress like a little girl. | |

More often than not, at least one of the costumes for the obligatory young party member in the various Tales Series games is of this nature. In the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia, 12 year Karol gets a costume that consists of nothing more than tight leather pants and black shoes. In Tales of Xillia, Elise's Star Driver and swimsuit costumes are rather skimpy for a shy girl of 13 years of age (who looks more like she's 10). The Star Driver outfit also gives her some rather flashy red lipstick, which does not help the dissonance. Alice from Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World is 18 years old but wears an outfit you would expect from a 5 year old girl. For some reason she seems rather stuffy about her age when Marta points it out, despite still being very young. Sophie from Tales of Graces can use Rutee's midriff bearing outfit as one of her costumes. |

Yoko from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann dresses in a very Stripperiffic manner, including a bikini top and hot pants. In the first half of the series, she's stated to be 14, making it seem like this trope. However, due to decades of isolation, all the villages have different calendars, which means that Yoko is just as old as Kamina, around 17-18. | |

Fire Emblem: As demonstrated in the page picture, the roughly 1,000-year old manakete Nowi from Fire Emblem: Awakening wears a dragonscale bikini top and garters that aren't terribly appropriate for her pre-teen looks and childish mannerisms. Based on other manaketes in the series, it'll be thousands of years before she actually looks old enough for such an outfit to be appropriate. Speaking of manaketes, an Older and Wiser Tiki from Shadow Dragon and Mystery of Emblem appears about midway through Awakening, and it's clear that the two millennia between games have been very good to her. In the Harvest Scramble DLC map, a conversation between Tiki and Lucina has the latter try to get Tiki into the spirit of the festivities by dressing Tiki up in a replica of the clothes she wore as a child (her main outfit is now a short red dress and matching high-heeled thigh-high boots). The end results aren't shown on-screen, but Tiki is nothing short of mortified at how ill-fitting her old garments are on her adult body. |

Dragon Ball: Chi-Chi in the first series. Her outfit, at age twelve, is a blue bikini with pink gloves and boots. The outfit that Bra/Bulla wears in Dragon Ball GT (a tube top, miniskirt, and thigh-high boots) is definitely not appropriate for her age. In the Japanese version, she is not older than 10. |

Dance Moms may have managed to make it even more disturbing. One episode featured the girls, who were generally between ages 8 and 13, being instructed to perform a burlesque-style striptease, complete with giant pink feathers to cover themselves and the Nude-Colored Clothes they were given to wear to imply toplessness. The episode is even outright titled "Topless Showgirls". The show understandably received heavy backlash and the episode was pulled from rotation. | |

Kelly, the daughter on Married... with Children, typically is dressed quite literally like a hooker, already qualifying for this trope since this began in Season 2 when the character is 16, though unlike many examples here, it's deliberately over the top for comic effect. However, one episode gives us a flashback to Kelly when she looks about eight or nine...and is already dressing this way. | |

In the final third of They Might Be Giants, forty-something Mildred Watson wears a poofy white party dress that would look much better on someone a couple of decades younger. Likely justified, as she is having Justin/Holmes over to her apartment for dinner, and it is pointed out earlier in the film that she has virtually no social life. | |

George Lucas specifically requested that her original outfit be redesigned to show more skin. A Time Skip in the third season finally changes this; the older Ahsoka wears a more modest outfit that still features an open back and a Cleavage Window. Incidently, Ahsoka's appearance only becomes more modest as she ages. She wears a jumpsuit in her walkabout arc in season seven, then a beskar plated dress during the Siege of Mandalore. She then wore literal armor as an adult in Star Wars Rebels. When Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi showed a training montage taking place across the span of her apprenticeship with Anakin, her outfit from the first two-and-a-half seasons of The Clone Wars was redesigned from the tube top to a padded sleeveless shirt with only a small bit of midriff exposed. |

Crystal from Pokémon Adventures switched outfits to match her game counterpart in the remakes... Well that's fine, except that the protagonist◊ is an eleven year old girl who wears a overalls and a giant hat. Crys is a rather mature girl who is now at age sixteen, so the style really doesn't fit her.◊ It was forced upon her by her mom, who is a Manchild and is also a prime example of this. | |

Many of the female guests at Renesmee's wedding in The Wedding Crashers are vampires whose immortality started before 18, and the clothes they wear — as noted by the Winchesters — makes the younger ones look like kids playing dress-up in Mommy's clothes... if Mommy was a hooker. The bride herself (who looks 17 but is actually around 10) wears a dress with a huge, poofy skirt... and a bit of netting on the top. It's covered up a bit by the shawl-like necklace she's wearing, but it still creeps the boys out. | |

Invoked deliberately in the Big Mouth episode, "Girls Are Angry Too" with the "Slut Walk". The girls—around 12 to 14 years old, mind—dress in skimpy, sometimes borderline Stripperiffic outfits in the name of female empowerment and to protest school dress codes. This ends slightly more realistically than some examples, as the girls feel less empowered and more creeped out by the attention they're getting from both their male peers and certain older teachers. | |

At the beginning of Spring Awakening Wendla tries to convince her mother to let her continue to wear a dress that's too small for her as she's too innocent to realize why this is inappropriate for a pubescent girl in 1891 (her reasoning for wanting it is more of the clinging to your childhood variety, as she says it "makes [her] feel like a little faerie-queen"). | |

One episode of Reba has Cheyanne volunteering at a nursing home where she dresses some of the elderly residents in things that seem to be from her own closet (most prominently, a pair of sweatpants with "Juicy" across the butt). Everyone feels that it's a sign of Cheyanne being ditzy and out of touch, but she eventually reveals that the residents asked for it and enjoyed getting makeovers and putting effort into their appearances (and getting the attention of some of the male residents). | |

The Chipettes are often accused of this, with the two particular occasions that stand out as the episode "Goin' Down to Dixie" from the 80s series and the movie The Chipmunk Adventure. In the former, The Chipettes entertain on a riverboat that's also a floating hotel, where they sing Creedence Clearwater Revival's, "Proud Mary," while wearing New Orleans-inspired dresses. In the latter, The Chipettes find themselves in Egypt, where the Prince wants to marry Brittany, and they are later dressed in harem attire for the rest of the movie; the fact that they also charmed snakes by singing a song called "Gettin' Lucky" didn't help matters either. | |

Fate/Grand Order: Abigail Williams's profile states her to be 12 years old, making her increasingly Stripperiffic outfit quite inappropriate for a girl her age. Her Summer version's First Ascension wears a very skimpy and inappropriate swimsuit. As she ascends further, she wears more sensible and modest swimsuits. The second and third ascensions of Assassin of the Nightless City aka Wu Zetian consists of an open robe, a small ribbon bra, and a Loincloth. Beast VI/S's young form looks like a preteen girl, but is wearing a modified version of her adult self's Barely-There Swimwear Chloe von Einzbern's outfit consists of what amounts to lingerie, not something one would have a young-looking girl like her wear. Although Jack the Ripper is implied to be Older Than She Looks, her outfit is still unusually skimpy. Thankfully, she has a cape she can throw on over it. Ushiwakamaru's wears just scant sleeves, a bikini bottom, and later a Chainmail Bikini. Her age is never approximated in-game, but Ushiwakamaru was the historical Minamoto no Yoshitsune's childhood name, and traditional Japanese naming convention has children receiving their adult name in their mid-teens, meaning this girl is about 14 at the oldest. Utsumi Erice is 14, yet wears a very revealing short dress that has two side slits up to the shoulder. |

Dead or Alive had such a bad case of giving revealing outfits to the girls, that the localized version of the Volleyball games left all of the girls who were not at least 18 years old as N/A. Ayane herself had some pretty revealing outfits herself in her first appearance of the second game, despite being 16. | |

Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor starts wearing T-shirts and hoodies in series 9, which is not only unusual wear for the Doctor but also for what looks to be a man in his seventies. Though, the fact that it looks very out-of-place for a man his age does give it that egocentricity the Doctor's costumes have. His hoodie trenchcoat however does look like it might be the most comfortable and functional piece of clothing The Doctor has ever owned. Even his Iconic Outfit is based on the kind of mod fashion that young people wore in the Swinging London era. The effect makes him seem either like a slightly underdressed Edwardian gentlemen or a Disco Dan who doesn't know the 60s are over. Of course, that was an intentional inversion of the Eleventh Doctor, played by a man in his late 20s (and who frankly could have passed for younger), but dressed in a tweed jacket and suspenders like a dorky turn-of-the-century university lecturer. |

Thelma Possum in Nip and Tuck is an example of the "dresses way too old-fashioned for her age" during the early strips of the comic. As in, Hortense, Malarkey County's resident "angry feminist", tells her she dresses down too much at one point, and hangs a lampshade that if she is criticizing Thelma's lack of sex appeal, then she is desperately overemphasizing her modesty. In the "lost strips" from the Nip & Tuck-The Funday Pawpet Show crossover, Thelma actually states at one point that she takes her wardrobe advice from her great-grandmother. Getting out of these clothes and into something more modern makes Tuck realize she really is a lot better looking than he'd thought. Like her status as an Insecure Love Interest, she grows out of this trait due to Character Development. | |

Teen Titans: During flashback sequences in New Teen Titans, the characters generally wear the same or similar clothing as their present-day counterparts for ease of recognition. Doesn't cause a problem most of the time, but Starfire's Stripperiffic bikini-style outfit looks most unsettling on a ten-or-so kid. Though this seems to be regular outdoor wear on her home planet, where, it seems, nobody wears pants. Beast Boy's Navel-Deep Neckline during his short-lived television career in the same sequence has shades of this as well, as he's a fairly young teen at the time. |

The Sandman (1989): Delirium's clothes would fall into this by default. Since she's been around since the earliest sentient life in the universe, she's really too old for pretty much anything she wears. She is also the youngest of the Endless, so anytime she dresses like a little kid is a subtle nod to what she used to be. In The Wake, she wears a fairy princess costume that looks like it's meant for a much younger kid; the skirt's very short on her. | |

Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Chipettes are often accused of this, with the two particular occasions that stand out as the episode "Goin' Down to Dixie" from the 80s series and the movie The Chipmunk Adventure. In the former, The Chipettes entertain on a riverboat that's also a floating hotel, where they sing Creedence Clearwater Revival's, "Proud Mary," while wearing New Orleans-inspired dresses. In the latter, The Chipettes find themselves in Egypt, where the Prince wants to marry Brittany, and they are later dressed in harem attire for the rest of the movie; the fact that they also charmed snakes by singing a song called "Gettin' Lucky" didn't help matters either. In the Crocodile Rock music video from The Chipmunks: Rockin' Through the Decades, an unnamed chipmunk girl (often thought to be the original but later scrapped Chipette, Charlene) dresses in a tight red dress while wearing heels and make-up. She doesn't look much older than Alvin. The contrast is even more noticeable as Alvin is wearing a cutesy dinosaur getup for part of the video. |

The Steve Harvey Show: Regina (who is in her mid to late 30's) is accused of not being in touch with the students. Her solution? Dressing like them. She resorts to wearing shirts that show her belly button and wearing her hair in Girlish Pigtails with loud, colorful accessories. She goes back to normal when Cedric reminds her of how embarrassing her parents were when they tried to act and dress young when she was a teenager. This is played with when it comes to Lovita. She dresses inappropriately for her job but not necessarily her age as she is portrayed as younger and more hip than Steve, Cedric, and Regina. No one really calls her out on it, except Steve (when he wants to make fun of her) and Regina (when Lovita takes it too far). |

Ruby Larose, in Sticky Dilly Buns, suffers from this bad, at least until someone points out to her how unwise her chosen short skirts are. She also wears a granny nightdress for sleeping. Her switch to smart business suits or jeans by day, and outsize T-shirts by night, is a symbol of her rapid Character Development. | |

Tera is the king of this in the Korean version, with an entire race of girls with animal ears who never seem to grow past 8-10 years old. The outfit models for that race were little more than lingerie, and had to be toned way down for the American release. In fact, most of the cloth shown in the new models was added in for the exported version. | |

At one point in Lola Rose, Jayni, who is around ten or eleven, dresses up in some of her mother's clothes and make-up, and actually goes out like that, hoping she looks older. This includes high-heels, a tight T-shirt and a bra (stuffed with tissues), as well as "half of Boots' make-up counter" on her face. She does actually succeed in getting a bit of attention from a few boys, though it doesn't so end well when one boy, Ross, kisses her against her will to show off to his gang. She also gets in trouble with Nikki for wearing her clothes without her permission. | |

Evangeline from Negima! Magister Negi Magi, who constantly dresses in a Stripperiffic Goth loli manner. She is considerably older than ten, but she does not look it. While Eva is the most obvious example, pick an outfit for the other girls apart from their school uniform or a casual after-school outfit of their own choosing and it's almost certain to be seen as "inappropriate" by someone in real life, considering that the vast majority of the cast are girls under the age of 16. And later on, a handful of boys under the age of 12 end up wearing elaborate tuxedos or business suits. | |

A Summons to Memphis: Phillip's Old Maid sisters, Betsy and Josephine, are pushing 60 but to his mortification still dress like young women. He writes about how they dress in miniskirts or Sexy Backless Outfits or show Absolute Cleavage, long after they've grown fat and saggy. | |

In Killing Eve Vilanelle, who is an international assassin, shows up wearing a pink tulle dress that looks like something a small child would wear while meeting with her handler Konstantin. It repents her emotional immaturity and fixation on material goods. | |

Misao from Rurouni Kenshin and her very short shorts, which are also very out of place in the late 19th century setting. Kenshin even remarks to himself "A little young to show so much thigh?" when he first meets her. | |

In the anime of Hidamari Sketch, Yoshinoya-sensei never reveals her actual age, preferring to say that she's eternally 17 (oi, oi!), but has been seen occasionally wearing outfits more suited to students, such as a sailor fuku (ironically, not the uniform style at Yamabuki), a cheerleading outfit, School Sport Uniform, and School Swimsuit. | |

Ãœbel Blatt has a Running Gag where Peepi, who looks about eight or nine (due only in part to being an elf), gets stuck in Stripperiffic clothing for chapters on end... And nobody cares. Something along the lines of "What's wrong, Peepi?" is the typical reaction. Ato's clothes, especially once she joins up with the main character full-time, cover a similar amount of skin. She's not that much older than Peepi. | |

Misty's classic outfit is a bit risqué for a ten year old. She wore short shorts and a midriff-bearing tank top. After leaving, she reappeared in Pokémon Chronicles and in Hoenn with more covered up clothes, however her reappearances in Sun and Moon has her back in her original costume for nostalgia sake. | |

Mob in the Mob Psycho 100 fanfic Off To The Races wears pretty much nothing but princess dress-up costumes long after it becomes age-inappropriate. This is due to a combination of not being allowed to grow up and not knowing any other kids her own age besides her little brother Sho. | |
