So you just bought some new clothes. It's a nice day, why not put 'em on and go for a walk? So there you are, ambling along, maybe even whistling. This won't end well. You will trip into a puddle, get caught by a splash of mud from a passing car, get soaked by a sudden downpour or the like. In extreme circumstances you will suddenly be passed by a hero chasing a villain and accidentally knocked into a pond or covered with rubble. Extra points if the dress was a Pimped-Out Dress. And shoes? Well as Ben Elton once said, "Nothing opens a dog's bottom quite like the sight of a new pair of hand-stitched Guccis!" Clothing Damage is a more extreme version, as is Naked Freak-Out (which is more titillating than either). See also Wardrobe Wound, Watch the Paint Job, Tempting Fate, The Precious, Precious Car, Priceless Ming Vase, Ill-Fated Flowerbed and Forced into Their Sunday Best. Contrast Bulletproof Fashion Plate, where fine clothing seems impervious to damage, no matter what happens to the wearer. May be caused by a fashion-specialized Status Quo Is God to preserve the Limited Wardrobe, along with the Law of Conservation of Detail —they're not going to call attention to new clothes and then do nothing with that information. Interestingly enough happens quite often when villains are out shopping. |

On an episode of Kate & Allie, Kate buys an expensive white dress for her date at the ballet, with the intention that she'll return it the next day. After the ballet, Kate strives to avoid potential disasters (including a kid with a chocolate ice cream cone) but falls into one of the ballerinas, getting the ballerina's stage makeup all over the dress. | |

Ranma ½: Akane is very proud and very happy. She has grown up a little bit, enough to make her buy a new bra. Unfortunately, she never even gets to wear it — Happosai steals it off the hamper at the bathhouse and tries to force female Ranma into it. Problem is, Ranma is significantly more grown up than Akane, and the bra is stretched out and ruined. Cue Akane's wrath. | |

Thomas & Friends: In "James and the Coaches", after James let off steam, he accidentally makes Sir Topham Hatt's hat wet. Later, Sir Topham Hatt warned James if he can't behave then the controller will take away his red coat and have the red engine painted blue. In "Lady Hatt's Birthday Party", Sir Topham Hatt promises to attend his wife's birthday spic and span in a new suit he bought for the occasion. Over the course of the episode, the suit becomes ruined. While he decides against changing his car's tire after it gets punctured by a pothole, his suit gets splashed with oil from George the Steamroller, he lands in a muddy puddle after George's steering wheel snaps, and gets covered with coal dust and soot when he substitutes for Thomas' fireman. Fortunately for him, he makes it to the party on time, and the guests are quick to make good humor of his adventure. In "Thomas and the Royal Engine", Sir Topham Hatt buys a new top hat in preparation for meeting the Queen and receiving an award. It gets crushed by a suitcase. |

One episode of The Simpsons: Team L.A.S.H., "The Heiress Diaries", has a B-plot in which Liv signs a deal with Skein (a fast-fashion company that prioritizes affordability over quality) to create a line of Sideshow Liv-themed clothes, and to promote her brand, decides to wear clothes from that line on school picture day. However, as she goes through the school day, her clothes begin falling apart and getting damaged, until she's left with ripped pants, a tunic that was torn in a fight with a classmate, a sneaker whose sole fell off, two broken earrings, and a headband without a decoration on it. | |

Frozen: Anna has to swap out her grand dress, made for her sister's coronation, for a still pretty, but winter friendly dress, after the former falls into an ice cold river, and the skirt quickly freezes solid once Anna stands up. It's downplayed, but Elsa's coronation dress doesn't last, sort of. It gets converted into a slinky, blue ice-themed dress. |

In the Recess episode "One Stayed Clean", the Recess Gang have to get all dressed up for their class picture. However, after they realize that they were getting their grade's photo taken last, the gang go through desperate measures to keep their clothes from getting wrecked, mainly Gus's, as this would be his first class picture due to his family moving around all the time before he can get a class photo. The effort ultimately proves futile. After a moment of indecision, Gus throws himself into the path of a handful of cheese sauce thrown by Lawson, sacrificing his own outfit to protect TJ's. After learning of this, his father shows the resulting photo to another soldier, and proudly says the boy has never looked better. | |

While Hitomi gets angry, various other characters call her out for this and the choice of clothes, as the elegant suit was delicate to be kept dry and Toshio, being a cop, would have damaged it in short order anyway. | |

One of the running gags of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, is that Rarity, the fashionista of the group, often has her nice clothes get messy, dirty, or destroyed. Special mention goes to Swarm of the Century, where the parasprites, after turning Extreme Omnivore, eat the very clothes Twilight had complimented Rarity on making the previous day. She successfully defied this during the brunch in "A Bird in the Hoof". |

When acting in the Doctor Who episode "The Seeds of Death", Wendy Padbury liked her costume so much that she bought it — and BBC bureaucracy required her to pay before shooting started. Then the paint on one of the sets turned out not to be completely dry. | |

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency: Grace Makutsi loooves shoes. You can probably guess that any new pair she's particularly excited about will either tear up her feet or get destroyed. | |

The King Nobody Wanted: Averted as a plot point when one of Khal Drogo's companions points out to him that some Volantene aristocrats wore their old, out-of-style clothing during an important meeting where their respective companions got into a fight. It is almost as if they expected something to happen and were afraid of getting blood on their good clothes. | |

My Life as a Teenage Robot At the start of "Call Hating", Tuck walks home with a fresh haircut and a white tuxedo. He manages to dodge a number of mud puddles, but then gets slimed by a giant Blob Monster. "The Great Unwashed" features a mix of this and Watch the Paint Job for Jenny, who got a new outfit/paint job for Don Prima's party, only for the Crust Cousins to hire the Mudslinger, a guy who specializes in both literal and figurative mud-slinging to attack her for the sole purpose of ruining it. The Crust Cousins succeed and when the Mudslinger confesses their scheme as an angry Jenny prepares to pulverize him, she quickly warms up and gives him her party invitation so he can do the same to them! |

Margin Play by Eric Plume: Amber buys a whole new outfit — shoes, dress, hose, undergarments, the whole works — in order to infiltrate a high-society party during her investigation. By the end of the evening, the dress is in shreds, the shoes have been broken and thrown away, and she has to hike back to her hotel barefoot and tattered. Fortunately, she can charge the cost to her (very deep-pocketed) client. | |

Ordell references this trope in Jackie Brown when, before leaving the two of them alone, he asks Melody to avoid ripping the new clothes off of Louis (he knew they'd have sex, his only concern was not wasting the money he spent on the new clothes.) | |

Hagar in Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon buys new clothes and makeup in order to impress Milkman Dead, but since she was in such a hurry to get home and try out the stuff, she has to deal with the rain and her bags tearing on her way there. By the time she does get home and put all that stuff on, Pilate and Reba see that her new clothes suffered major damage, to say nothing about her smeary makeup and wet hair. | |

Pan's Labyrinth: Oh, Ofelia. "Here's your new dress, shoes, and hair ribbon. Be sure to keep them clean, you must look good for your father's party tonight." To give the girl credit, she tries to take some care of her clothes by taking her fancy dress off and hanging it on a branch before she goes hunting for a magic toad under a long-dead fig tree. However, it doesn't work, the dress gets lost, and by the time she finds her dress and wanders home again, the poor thing is covered head-to-toe in mud. | |

Averted in Firefly when Kaylee gets a voluminous pink dress and Mal warns her to take care of it. Despite ensuing duels and Kaylee's propensity for getting her engineer garb dirty, by the end of the episode it is hanging up in pride of place in Kaylee's room as pristine as ever. | |

Though Troop Beverly Hills doesn't indicate if Phyllis's white mink coat is brand new or been stored in her closet, but it's clearly inappropriate to wear when taking your Wilderness Girls troop camping. We can surmise that she will have to pay the dry cleaners a pretty penny after the coat gets covered in rain and some mud. | |
