Some characters wear a realistic outfit, to the point that a cosplay of them might be relatively simple. But this gets kind of boring; it's not a challenge for the cosplayer to put together, and very few people will actually realize that they are in costume. (Which might explain why even mundane series tend to gravitate towards unique school uniforms and such.) Sometimes the character designers realize that their characters' wardrobes are too realistic. One way to compensate for this is by mixing bits and pieces of what might be a number of perfectly acceptable outfits into a bizarre Frankensteinian mess. The outfit may be comfortable, but something about it just looks slightly, but not totally, off. Often involves Too Many Belts, Goggles Do Nothing, Virtual Paper Doll (with some questionable mixing and matching), Impossibly Tacky Clothes, Fashionable Asymmetry. An especially bad example may have you asking, "WTH, Costuming Department?". This is typically justified in settings where characters are forced to scavenge and fabricate clothing or armor from whatever scraps they have at hand. It's especially prominent in Post Apocalyptic fiction. See also Rainbow Pimp Gear (where video game characters achieve this effect due to their ideal gear being unfortunately mismatched), Seriously Scruffy (when the character's odd outfit is down to stress) and Improvised Clothes. Contrast Pimped-Out Dress, which could have loads of accessories, but (usually) in a stylish manner. |

Tyler Durden's wardrobe in the movie version of Fight Club is a combination of retro Impossibly Cool Clothes and deliberately shabby rummage sale clothes that perfectly convey Durden's iconoclastic-rebel-hipster personality. The fact that they look so cool is aided enormously by the fact that they're worn by Brad Pitt, whose girlfriend at the time provided the tacky pink bathrobe he wears in one scene. | |

In David Eddings' Belgariad series of novels, Belgarath developed his trademark vagrant's outfit on purpose in order to pass mostly unnoticed. While everyone thinks that his ragged tunic and mismatched shoes are remnants of rubbish heaps, the entire outfit was custom-tailored, including a tunic that has patches over intact cloth, and his mismatched boots were custom-made by a master cobbler and fit perfectly — after Belgarath spent a full day patiently explaining to the craftsman why he didn't want them to match and wanted them to be scuffed up a little after they were made. | |

Digimon: Most of the cast's outfits — in particular, the liberal use of goggles and gloves. The reason the franchise's homepage is linked and not individual series is because it would be faster to list aversions than go through each series's weirdly dressed characters in list form. In fact, the only total aversions are Hikari in Digimon Adventure, Iori in Digimon Adventure 02, and four minor characters in Digimon Frontier. Digimon Data Squad actually got backlash for generally neutralising the weird clothing, with the result that Digimon Fusion sees the return of the rummage sale rejects in truly spectacular force. Comparatively Digimon Tamers also toned it down somewhat; only Hirokazu's clothing — and at a stretch, Ruki and Jenrya's — couldn't pass for normal. Digimon Adventure 02 provides some justification in that the strange clothing, excluding Takeru and Hikari, is automatically applied to the Chosen Children upon arriving in the Digital World; their outfits in the real world, again excluding Takeru and Hikari, are much more normal. Said Digital World clothing is said to be a manifestation of how they see themselves and, well, they're all eleven or less. Some individual cases and situations are also justified, such as Ryo. |

X-Men: Jubilee's costumes, before she got depowered, were probably inspired by the anime look, but she's the comic-book example that jumps out as having WAY too many accessories. Her most infamous attire is a bright yellow trench coat, huge hot pink wrap-around glasses, large, round earrings with her name on them, and what looks like giant dishwashing gloves, and this was worn over shorts and a red shirt. Given that she debuted in The '80s... Word of God is that the outfit was deliberately designed to look like a Robin costume made out of actual clothing. Wonderfully Lampshaded in the Marvel vs DC Crossover: Robin appears out of nowhere in front of Jubilee and she just replies (paraphrasing) "Nice outfit." They end up as potential love interests before battling. Pre-Shadowcat Kitty Pryde (then going by the codename "Sprite") went through a couple of attempts at designing her own costume, all of which were intended to look like something a young teenager in The '80s would think was cool. The most infamous was a Dazzler-inspired gold lamé monstrosity with legwarmers and rollerskates. |

Tales of Berseria: Velvet.◊ After she was placed in prison, she was not given a change of clothing for three years. After she finally broke out, the best she could do was grab scraps of material from other prisoners' clothes and armor she could find and tied it all together with belts. And even then she's got nothing on Magilou, who literally wears a skirt made out of books◊ on top of her already flamboyant jester costume. |

SoltyRei plays with this when, during a shopping trip, the main character goes through a series of fairly reasonable outfits.

In Lyrical Nanoha, the outfit one's Transformation Sequence results in is called a "Barrier Jacket", and is partially determined via the subconscious. As the series progresses, more and more Barrier Jackets are a pastiche of random pieces of medieval armor, capes, military uniforms, and exaggerated modern teenager apparel. Which actually makes sense, as later characters have more exposure to different cultures (Belka, Midchilda, and Earth) with those aspects. | |

The cast of Naruto alternate between Impossibly Cool Clothes and Rummage Sale Rejects depending on personal taste. Naruto's safety-orange-hued jacket and pants certainly stands out. On the few occasions where Naruto isn't wearing his jacket, you can see he has some sort of layer of chainmail under it, which explains having something so loose if not the color. By the time of the second series, he abandons the goofy-looking orange and blue jacket in favor of a slightly less goofy-looking orange and black jacket. The most curious part is that it is shown in the manga that many people in the village wear orange just like him. Lee and Guy's green jumpsuits are acknowledged as goofy looking by almost everyone but them and Naruto. |

Many of the more ignorant wizards and witches in Harry Potter tend to err towards this when trying to pass off as Muggles. This is partly due to the majority of wizarding society secluding themselves from the Muggle world (thus not really interacting with them much, if at all), and/or dressing primarily in long robes and other such similar items. Those who do fare better tend to be either Muggle-born or half-blood (thus, usually in the constant presence of Muggles), or they study Muggles (as Mr. Weasley does, thus ensuring his children pick up this skill from him). | |

Rita from Tales of Vesperia really looks like she just rolled out of bed, found whatever was nearby that fit, and went out adventuring. Most obviously, both her socks and shoes don't match at all, and her top is covered with a hodge-podge of poorly-matched colors and whatever she finds useful. Given an early visit to her room shows that it's piled high with junk, it's quite possible that she really did just grab whatever clothes were on hand in the morning. When Judith, a shameless flirt who normally wears very little, is tasked to seduce the guard in Heliord, she gets an outfit made that is best described as "rabbit cosplay themed." It is certainly a choice, and must be seen to be believed. |

The school uniforms in Princess Tutu are distinctive enough (and odd enough) that they don't fit under this... but what the characters like to wear outside of their uniforms are just normal enough to make you scratch your head. Ahiru wears big poofy yellow shorts and a midriff-baring sweater that is appropriately bird-like, while Fakir seems to be wearing one of the standard boy's dance outfits... except that he has inexplicably torn up the top and haphazardly sewn it back together. | |

Jericho, of the Whateley Universe, dresses every day in clothes that are so gaudy and so mismatched that people actually get ill from looking at him. He's blind and his psychic vision is black-and-white and uses that as an excuse. He's specifically picked each part of his ensemble to not go with anything else in order to draw attention away from the crowd he hangs with. That or to fit in with them. Said crowd includes a Lamia, two tetra-armed demonic-looking, fear aura packing receptive empath twins, a mute Ancient Apex Predator, and an extremely violent current incarnation of the Ultimate Blacksmith. Besides, if he's forced to, he will wear the school uniform. Just don't ask WHICH school uniform... For Ayla's birthday party, he dressed in a nice shirt and jeans, but said that underneath he had his 'Undershirt of DOOOOM!' He wasn't joking: when the party was attacked by mercenaries, he unbuttoned his shirt to reveal it, and two of the attackers collapsed, vomiting. |

Final Fantasy XII: Basch. The national costume of Dalmasca appears to be "pastel BDSM wear", Vaan never puts on a shirt, Fran wears a merry-widow with thigh-highs, Penelo has bizarre leather wing-things on the back of her costume, Ashe has a Chippendales collar and the world's shortest skirt, but Basch takes the cake by showing up in multiple ridiculous outfits: bright orange shorts under armour, a leather thong on the outside of his clothes that seems to be riding up rather a lot, and an open-fronted shirt and jacket combo set off with what appears to be a potholder or a scrap of his favourite childhood security blanket strapped to one side of his chest. | |

While leveling in World of Warcraft you'll often end up with a medley of gear for your Virtual Paper Doll. Penny Arcade explores the problem in this comic, and the Brothers Grinn illustrate it here◊. The various quest reward gear items obtained between levels 60 to 65 are the most blatant example of this trope as well as the inspiration for the Penny Arcade comic. Mismatched in the most extreme case of garish color clash that could only occur if a clown car exploded in a Skittles factory, the stats on the pieces are still head and shoulders above the most powerful endgame raid gear obtained prior to The Burning Crusade expansion. Many players refer to this phase of a character's life as the pimp suit. Later expansions have done better, with more unified-looking sets... at the cost of sometimes plunging deep into Real Is Brown. Mists of Pandaria now has Transmogrification, which allows players (for some in-game gold, and with certain limitations) to change pieces of their outfits to match the look of other pieces they have, either averting or invoking this trope as they wish. With the advent of Legion you can now Transmogrify to any piece of equipment you've ever had soulbound, so by the time you reach max level you've got quite a wardrobe to choose from. This also created a secondary market for rare, visually appealing Bind on Equip drops. |

Being deposed English aristocracy who have taken up banditry and kidnapping to maintain their illegal estates, the "Villains" of Early Riser dress in a combination of traditionally stuffy, upper-class clothing (tweed, High-Class Glass, etc...), well-worn cold-weather gear, and plenty of weapons. When Lord Farnesworth first threatens Charlie, his outfit is described as such: | |

Persona 4 Golden: Marie wears a mishmash of styles, including a plaid skirt, striped stockings, platform boots, a blue hat, a white shirt with a black tie, and a number of gold-coloured pins.

The Dark Knight: The Joker was apparently designed with this look in mind, to seem as though his outfit was pieced together from different suits he'd stolen. Surprisingly, the cops who tried to determine his identity from his possessions discovered that the entire suit was custom-made. Joker comments at one point that his clothes aren't cheap; he paid for them using money stolen from mob banks. | |

Rupauls Drag Race: One of the most dreaded challenges of every season is when Ru tasks the queens with creating a whole outfit out of unconventional materials, such as dollar store items, curtains, yard sale junk, etc. Since the contestants have varying design skills, the end result ranges from stunning◊ to...this◊. Season 6 contestant Joslyn Fox made this trope her signature style, wearing extremely busy outfits and enough jewelry to open a mall kiosk. Considering she tends to be rather stripperiffic as well, RuPaul and the other judges were often baffled at how she could have on so much yet still be so naked at the same time! |

Sadamitsu in the Tokyo Arc of Otogi Zoshi looks particularly ridiculous. His jacket — an orange and yellow thing with Cupid-style cherubs on the chest and a large red heart in back — is bad enough, but he supplements this with a midriff-baring black shirt, shiny leather pants, studded leather wristbands, a silver medallion necklace, and some skull jewelry on his hands. | |

In The Sims series, it's possible to make a character in Create-a-Sim that looks like this simply through the various customization options.

He wears a completely random assortment of mismatched clothing; even his shoes don't match. Lindon theorizes that he just wears something until it gets so worn that he has to replace it, at which point he grabs whatever is nearby and uses that without any consideration for how it fits with the rest of his outfit. | |

Both Howard and Vince of The Mighty Boosh are this, though they're at opposite extremes. Howard is constantly dressing in plain second-hand-looking clothing from the seventies in some hideous shade of brown with a very rare splash of hideous colour, like the purple and orange poncho he wore in series two. Vince on the other hand is a campy fashionista who makes a lot of his own clothes when he isn't buying them from the most trendy shops in London, and dresses in bright sparkly clothes, often with many accessories like belts, a pink hat or bright red cowboy boots. Vince always manages to pull his outfits off pretty well, but Howard, um, doesn't. | |

Fallout, especially the third game, would follow Mad Max and have Raiders with weird attire made out of literal garbage, such as discarded tires. In The Pitt expansion for the third numbered game, Pitt Raiders have Bombshell armor with a bikini top literally made of bombshells (here being the front of a mini nuke bomb). In Fallout: New Vegas, legionares wear what is obviously sports equipment with odd decorations (including feathers and paper plates). Centurions however show off their badass status by wearing a mishmash of things from enemies they've killed. Including supermutant helmets and Brotherhood armor parts. Much of the Legion's better armor is clearly constructed from football equipment. | |

Award-hopefuls include Fuuma Kotaro who is covered in blades including platform stillettos, Ishikawa Goemon with a crossdressing asymmetric belt-heavy number, Date Masamune in his Kyoto outfit that is indeed fearsome to behold but not for the reasons he thinks, and Kaio who has no bottoms on but a lot going on elsewhere. | |

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Willy Wonka wears a suit that would be positively natty, albeit more appropriate for a Stage Magician than a chocolate factory owner, if not for the strange colors involved: plum-colored tailcoat, bottle-green trousers, pearly-gray gloves, black top hat. Tellingly, the two movie adaptations tone this down into coordinating but still-whimsical ensembles and have him clean-shaven — he's written as having a black goatee — to boot. The 2013 stage musical chooses to take the original description and push it further — teal lapels and cuffs on the coat, an orange Waistcoat of Style, blue tie with orange stripes. On top of that, there are several contrasting patterns invoked, resulting in quite an eyeful. Of course, this is a reflection of Mr. Wonka's extreme eccentricity, and depending on one's point of view could even be regarded as Awesome Anachronistic Apparel. Moreover, it is all beautifully tailored and he is impeccably groomed in all versions, so he's a Sharp-Dressed Man as well! | |

Shawn Hunter on Boy Meets World had clothes that were always badly mismatched (even by the standards of '90s grunge fashion) and at least two sizes too big. It was strongly hinted that his clothes were literal rummage sale rejects, as his family was extremely poor and slovenly. However, he often hid them under a tattered black leather jacket, thereby managing to look somewhat cool. | |

Some of the Pokémon protagonists have unusual combinations of clothing. The most prominent examples include Emerald!Brendan wearing shorts over pants (along with a hat that looks like white hair and a headband,) Lyra wearing a hybrid of short shorts and overalls with a hoodie underneath it, and HGSS!Ethan wearing a hoodie and a backwards hat with... early 20th century-style knickerbockers. The Gym Leaders and Elite Four members can get even more bizarre with their outfits. For example, Brycen wears what looks like half of a kimono, a domino mask, and slip-on shoes. On a similar note, Frontier Brain Greta from Pokémon Emerald, who wears a kimono jacket and red sneakers over a blue bodysuit. AZ from Pokémon X and Y is another candidate, but given his size and how he's been Walking the Earth for 3000 years, his disheveled appearance might be justified. This can be invoked by the player in Pokémon X and Y, Pokémon Sun and Moon and Pokémon Sword and Shield, depending on how they customize their character's outfit. It's very much possible to get things in clashing colors, or mix ripped jean shorts with a Waistcoat of Style, among various other choices. Jacq from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet looks like he just rolled out of bed before going to work, as he's wearing a very baggy shirt and sweatpants under an otherwise-fine labcoat. Clavell can call him out on it in The Indigo Disk, and throws in the fact that he's wearing sandals instead of some more professional-looking shoes. |

From Software's Evergrace duology: the jokey or downright strange looking weapons and armor, ranging from a frying pan WITH the bacon and eggs still in it, to a bird's nest with the bird still in it (worn as a helmet), to a downed tree (the 'sacred pole', which is about 20 feet long and when not in use is off the edge of the screen), to a random globe you find on someone's desk, to a fanservice-y bit of armor which is just two straps with gigantic pauldrons all megaboost one or more stats. (keep also in mind they can be upgraded and utilized like normal equipment too. The shopkeeper even calls you out on it. "YOU want to upgrade THAT? You're weird.") However, the best all-round builds with an even increase in stats are all plain and generic armor of sorts. And the best full set in the game only looks out of place because this is a medieval fantasy game. (It's a suit of futuristic armor that resembles one of the Armored Core hover leg mechas). Since a good amount of enemies have an immunity to one form of attack or another, using a ridiculous-looking build to Min Max just a couple stats leads to a lot of 0 damage hits on some areas. (An interesting gameplay quirk is that armor that boosts attack doesn't just boost attack, but one of the three kinds of melee attacks too, piercing, chopping, slashing. Whatever is the highest becomes your 'main physical attribute' and determines what is immune to you) | |

Taken to extremes in the Jak and Daxter series of games: The bizarre half-barefoot footwear in the first game are a particularly notable example. In Jak 3: Wastelander it's shown Jak still wears bandages fashioned like this under his boots. Easily Handwave-able from Jak II: Renegade onwards - outfits probably were, in fact, cobbled together from what was at hand in the grim darkness of the far future. |

Janet Donner, a one-off character from the Eerie, Indiana episode "The Lost Hour", spends most of the episode in an outfit that would almost look normal were it not for rampant over-accessorizing: Every inch of the front of her coat is covered with pins and brooches, her belt similarly has various items hanging off it, and her earrings are mismatched. However, as a teenager who's been living in an otherwise (mostly) deserted version of Eerie for a year, she just gets everything she has by looting the World O' Stuff - so it's meant to look like she's just been scavenging for whatever random trinkets she thinks look cool. | |

Kino, of Kino's Journey is a fairly subtle version of this. She looks to be wearing normal traveling clothing most of the time, but then you realize she's wearing two trench coats of completely different designs, a hunting cap, goggles, a dress shirt, pants, a belt with a ridiculous number of pouches, a second belt for her gun, a boatload of weapons, a scarf, and metal wrist guards. As a traveler, clothing is supposed to be practical rather than pretty, but it seems overkill until the later episodes. | |

Code Vein: Io wears a bizarre outfit that looks something like the barest remnants of a shredded gown, including a torso piece that barely contains her breasts and looks like it's liable to rip apart any second, plus some bandages. She occasionally tosses on a hooded jacket (her Blood Veil), which does absolutely nothing to make the outfit less insane. She even fights in it. Oh, and all her sister Attendants wear the exact same outfit. They are all Blood Magic clones meant to serve the Successors and are apparently born wearing it. Notably, the outfit looks like a ruined version of the wedding gown Karen is wearing, and the Attendants are nearly identical to Karen in physical appearance as well. | |

In Edna's Intervention, one of Edna Mode's criticisms on Aoyama's Pro Hero costumes is that some of the elements clash with each other since he just chose to wear every accessory he thought "sparkled".

In Babylon 5, Londo Mollari's clothes aren't quite as bad as many of the others who fall under this trope, and they at least all go together, but he nevertheless does look like he's cosplaying a Frenchman from the Napoleon era for Halloween.

The protagonist of Disco Elysium starts out in a filthy, tasteless but cohesive disco loungewear outfit, but the player will find other items of clothing as they play, often abandoned in bins or similar, and virtually all horrible, filthy or bizarre. Since each clothing item affects your stats, you will likely be changing your outfit to whatever gives you the most plusses for a check, meaning you may find an optimal outfit for passing (e.g.) an Electrochemistry check will be mustard bell-bottoms, a dragon kimono, filthy Hobo Gloves, and a pair of too-small plastic sunglasses called by the game "Shades of Self-destruction". Or, especially early in the game, you may have no items in a slot except ones that penalise a stat you desperately need, leading to you maximising your chances to make that roll by taking off your pants. (On top of this, the character's Horrific Necktie will talk to the player if you have it equipped and the game warns you that to ever take it off would be to betray it, encouraging it to be kept on with outfits that would not normally require a tie, such as outfits that do not have a shirt. Your sidekick Kim ignores most of the wardrobe crimes but will ask pointed questions about it if you start incorporating bits of a fascist uniform into your wardrobe. | |

Team Fortress 2 occasionally has shades of this ever since the advent of new unlockable weapons, optional cosmetic items, and the option to paint said cosmetic items. In-universe, the Soldier's 2011 Halloween costume comes across as this, consisting of a coat hanger, cardboard box, plastic cups, dryer hoses, and shoeboxes to dress up as a plausible yet hilariously poor-quality 'robot.' This is in stark contrast to the other classes' costumes, which are all quite clearly well designed in-universe. Justified in that the Soldier is a Cloud Cuckoolander in a state of Perpetual Poverty, so the cheap, unconvincing robot costume suits him. He also makes up for it with unique and priceless vocal responses. | |

One book includes a minor character who constantly wears incredibly tacky pants and brags about how little he spent on them. |

Most of Tetsuya Nomura's character designs for VII and VIII were at least plausible, but many of the characters from FFX (the aforementioned Tidus and Lulu with her belt-dress being prime offenders) have costumes that are simply strange. Nooj◊, from the sequel Final Fantasy X-2, takes the cake with an outfit that is nothing short of bizarre. | |

Doctor Who: Various incarnations of the titular Time Lord take this approach to their outfits. The later versions tend towards less outlandish but nonetheless distinctive looks. The Second Doctor had a many-pocketed, unkempt coat to go with his "space hobo" look. The Third Doctor wore velvet smoking jackets and frilly shirts that Jon Pertwee wore precisely because they looked silly. He also wore a cape most of the time. And his hair, fluffed out with rollers because the actress playing his companion teased him about his bald spot, slowly increased in size as his tenure went on. He also had a tattoo (in the 1970s, before it was cool). The Fourth Doctor's first season outfit is a horrible shabby mess — an ugly shirt, a corduroy jacket with patches on the elbows, a tacky brown and yellow argyle cardigan, a crumpled-up scarf used as a tie, scuffed shoes, and baggy trousers — the aim being to reflect how young he was compared to the previous Doctors, foregoing "mad professor" in favor of "starving student". And there's that scarf; a happy accident (they bought too much wool for the old lady who knitted it expecting her to only use what she needed to make a normal scarf, but instead she thought she was supposed to use it all up). As the Doctor's character developed it was decided he should begin to look bohemian and byronic — he grows his sideburns out longer, ditches the jacket for frock coats, swaps the cardigan for waistcoats, the scuffed shoes for boots with tall heels, and the tacky shirt for a plain ivory shirt with voluminous Victorian-style sleeves, themes he sticks to for the whole of the rest of his tenure. Having established a beautiful and romantic taste in fashion, he then goes on to bury it under huge hair, a big floppy hat and several layers of hideous and ill-matching scarf significantly longer than he is tall, with awesomely disastrous visual results. Certain stories exploit this by having him remove all the mismatched parts of his outfit in order to give him a few moments of looking actually good, usually when he's supposed to be dashing and romantic, or Darker and Edgier ("The Hand of Fear", "The Deadly Assassin", some scenes in "Image of the Fendahl", "The Talons of Weng-Chiang" and the punting scene in "Shada" come to mind). He tends to stick to browns with the occasional dash of dark red or purple — Word of God says the colour palette was inspired by the tendency to describe Tom Baker's characteristically deep voice as "dark brown". Early on he also has a habit of doing his buttons up wrong — he buttons up his cardigan so one side is longer than the other, buttons up his frock coat so the double-breast doesn't cross right, and (in "The Masque of Mandragora") does up his waistcoat all the way to the bottom, creating a weird bulge. The Fifth Doctor's red-trimmed cricket outfit and decorative vegetable. Not many men can pull off a decorative vegetable. The Sixth Doctor's ridiculous clown suit (to match his ego-inflated personality). At a who-con in Tampa, Colin Baker (The Sixth Doctor) told the audience that he had chosen his garish coat specifically because he didn't have to look at it. The Seventh Doctor's question-mark sweater (with question mark-handled umbrella) which might just have gone too far. Subverted by the Eighth Doctor, who stole his outfit from the locker of someone who was going to a costume party. After rummaging through and apparently giving a certain amount of consideration to some really costume-y things, he settled on a rather peculiar but elegant Edwardian suit. The Ninth Doctor averts this: his dark pants, dark-colored v-neck t-shirt, and a black leather coat coordinate nicely — though the coat may not be the best thing to be wearing in WWII England, as Captain Jack notes.note It's a German naval officer's jacket. The Tenth Doctor wears a brown pinstripe or blue suit (it varies) with an open collar shirt, a tie, and... Converse trainers (in three varying colors), along with a duster. Believe it or not, the whole thing works. The trainers-with-suit looked odder when Ten's stint started than it does now since while it hasn't exactly become a trend, it definitely has its imitators. The Eleventh Doctor got most of his outfit from what was lying around in a hospital while he was fighting two Starfish Aliens. The old professor outfit with a bowtie is actually one of the more "normal" ones. For one brief, shining moment in the Series 5 finale, his outfit consisted of tight pants, button-down shirt, tweed jacket, suspenders, bowtie, and a fez. While holding a mop, for no particular reason. At the start of the next series, he has a stetson. However, River Song doesn't like him in hats and has an... unambiguous way of demonstrating this. There's also the long-johns he wore in "The Crimson Horror". It Makes Sense in Context, but especially on Matt Smith's lanky frame, the effect is more than a little silly. The Thirteenth Doctor returns to form, throwing together a raincoat with culottes, a rainbow-striped t-shirt, braces/suspenders, and work boots — with no apparent regard for colour coordination. In her particular case, she bought them from a thrift store, as she was separated from the TARDIS at the time. The Dulcians from "The Dominators" are Human Aliens where both sexes wear curtain-like dresses. On the ladies (i.e. Zoe and Kando), the dresses actually look rather sexy; the men, on the other hand... The Doctor's companion Adric wore ill-fitting pajamas with a rather childish star on the pocket and bright green boots. |

Digimon Adventure 02 provides some justification in that the strange clothing, excluding Takeru and Hikari, is automatically applied to the Chosen Children upon arriving in the Digital World; their outfits in the real world, again excluding Takeru and Hikari, are much more normal. Said Digital World clothing is said to be a manifestation of how they see themselves and, well, they're all eleven or less. Some individual cases and situations are also justified, such as Ryo. | |

Dean & Nala + Vinny: Dean. For a cyclist who often puts in serious mileage in a single day, Dean dresses oddly, opting for a tank top, baggy shorts and Crocs (one white, another black) instead of specialized bike gear. He doesn't even wear a helmet. | |

No More Heroes' Travis Touchdown is no doubt a pathetic enough Otaku to deliberately dress this way. At least the single glove seems kinda handy for using his beam katana, but the rest... the player can choose exactly how ridiculous Travis' outfit becomes by buying more clothes (or diving for shirts in Santa Destroy's many dumpsters), all of them awesomely tasteless Otaku wear. | |

Kirika Kure, of Puella Magi Oriko Magica. Mismatched stockings, mismatched armbands, two skirts, a necktie with a weird medallion pinned to it, Too Many Belts (one with a stuffed animal dangling from it), an unnecessary eyepatch, the list goes on. In her case, it's meant to convey that she's really not quite right in the head as a consequence of her wish. | |

Jacq from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet looks like he just rolled out of bed before going to work, as he's wearing a very baggy shirt and sweatpants under an otherwise-fine labcoat. Clavell can call him out on it in The Indigo Disk, and throws in the fact that he's wearing sandals instead of some more professional-looking shoes. | |

In Amazing Fantasy, Martin Li's Hero costume as the Wraith consists of a purple t-shirt with skulls on it, Zipperiffic cargo shorts, elastic bands and scarves wrapped around his face, arms, and knees, and steel-toed shinobi sandals straight out of Naruto.

The Fable series opens the door to this trope by allowing the player to customize the Hero's appearance. Most of the clothes (and tattoos) are parts of sets that at least compliment each other if worn together. If the player chooses to mix and match, though, the results can range from badass to completely ridiculous. Fable II introduces dyes for clothing and hair, which just adds to the fun. | |

Top Gear: For a modest man, James May has a collection of incredibly loud shirts. He especially favors a purple-and-pink striped number that May himself has dubbed "The Pink-and-Purple Rugby Shirt of Doom." One of them, a white shirt with a blue flower pattern, even has its own fanbase. Lampshaded by the man himself during an episode of James May's Man Lab, when he presents a rack full of said shirts and then proceeds to pull out the infamous purple-and-pink one... The use of this trope also turned into a Running Gag in series 12. Invoked when May tells a story on The Grand Tour that the manufacturer of the rugby shirt once asked him to stop wearing it, even going so far as to offer him free clothes. |

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014), those new outfits are not haute couture, to put it mildly. Donatello has a computer's cooling fan stuck to the back of his shell, and Michelangelo has a hoodie tied around his waist as a belt, among other things. Flashbacks show that the turtles dressed that way since they were children, probably from what they could scrounge from the sewers. | |

In Dr. Franklin's Island the castaways, scavenging from the crashed plane, dress quite haphazardly. When they're captured for their Slow Transformation, they're put in a faux hotel suite full of Mundane Luxury, including a walk-in closet with clothing taken from the general stores available to the doctor's staff and their families, which is all much too big for the half-starved girls. After some experimenting and being horrified at their reflections, they settle on an "off the shoulder beach hippie" look. | |

1977 Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 5. Think the poor man's Billy Idol, combining spiked hair and Guyliner with black t-shirt with cut-off sleeves and clusters of safety-pins over ripped jeans. He accessorizes with chains and dogtags. When he kills Slayer Nikki Wood, he goes out of his way of stripping them of their Badass Long Coat. | |

The wardrobe of Punky Brewster, especially during its NBC run, certainly qualifies. A mauve vest over a red T-shirt over a blue long-sleeve shirt, jeans with one leg rolled up and another with a kerchief tied to it at the knee, a red shoe on her right foot, and a yellow shoe on her left. Must have been a royal pain for the paint crew of Ruby-Spears to fill in those colors in the animated edition. | |

Star Wars Legends: Most of the time, when characters in the X-Wing Series have their clothing mentioned at all, they're in pilot's jumpsuits, although there are notable exceptions. In Wraith Squadron, when three Wraiths doing The Infiltration are passing as wild-shirted tourists, well — better just to quote. In Starfighters of Adumar, "Red Flight" are told to dress in the local Feudal Future fashion for a diplomatic dinner. Wedge, Tycho, and Wes choose nicely coordinated outfits, but Hobbie throws together random colors and styles from the wardrobe on the basis that: |

CyberPunk 2077 is a heavy offender, since street fashions in the 2070s run towards bright colors, loud patterns, synthetic fabrics, and something of a return of Glam Rock fashions. Since Rainbow Pimp Gear is also in full effect, having your main character wear a sequinned tank-top, lime-colored suit jacket, turquoise hotpants, and knee-high aluminium-plated boots is more likely than not to happen but will blend in fairly well. This is contrasted with the sleek, monochrome, and minimalist look of the corporate styles. | |

Nomura growing out his more extreme Rummage Sale Reject style can be seen in the progression of the costume designs in the Kingdom Hearts series.

This can be invoked by the player in Pokémon X and Y, Pokémon Sun and Moon and Pokémon Sword and Shield, depending on how they customize their character's outfit.

The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: The Lost Light members sometimes use holomatter avatars to look like humans. Most of them can pass up as dressing in more on less regular clothing (if we don't count that Cyclonus is an Indian lady in a Victorian dress or Skids and Nightbeat being respectively either the Ninth or Eleventh Doctor and Luther), but then you have Rodimus, that is basically John Bender wearing Marty McFly's vest instead of his usual jacket, plus a tribal flame tattoo on his right arm, a bandanna, and Hot Rod/Rodimus's usual flame pattern on the undershirt; and Whirl, whose default design (seen in issues 13 and 47) looks enough like a regular tomboyish little girl except for the eyepatch, but then the redesign seen in issue 30 adds in bandages, spiked elbowpads, kneepad, choker and ankle bracelets(the latter worn over army boots), fingerless gloves, wristwatches on both arms, bike shorts under the jumper and a pair of AK-47 sheated on her back and chained on the front of the belt. And that's not mentioning her bushy sideburns, V-shaped eyebrows, and lightning-shaped pupil. | |

While most any game involving appearance/clothing customization is vulnerable to this, superhero games are like magnets due to the sheer variety of options typically available. "Costume Contests" were popular in both City of Heroes and Champions Online for this very reason, if only to find things such as a knight in multicolored armor (which is also a mix of plate and Roman gladiator) with jester shoes and a jet pack, or a werewolf with bull horns, horse hooves, fairy wings, and hot pink spandex pants that has a flaming aura, and of course the hilarity of the "Randomize" button that intentionally creates this effect. | |

Deadpool: In one story, the Punisher arrived in a Big Damn Heroes moment wearing an outfit consisting of the weapons used by a bunch of different C and D-List villains. It looked ridiculous, but as it was basically made of guns (most of which were of the Shoulder Cannon and wrist-blaster variety so he could use them simultaneously), the effect was badass enough that even Deadpool didn't snark about it. | |
