Part of Stock Costume Traits: It's Prom Night! Or it's a wedding! It could be Shlomo's bar mitzvah, but no matter what kind of an event, Weirdo McGeek is invited as well. And what kind of garment did he choose to show up wearing? A frilled shirt, a bowtie or Classy Cravat, a cummerbund, and a tuxedo in baby blue. All 100% polyester. It's a disco-style tuxedo John Travolta could barely look good in, but the nerd usually comes dressed up like this to a fancy event. Usually an over-the-top exaggeration of the schizoid styles used in the Real Life 70s, falling out of fashion as disco music died downnote This in the West. You can easily see ruffled shirts in Asian and Arab countries. Frilly shirts and big ties in particular made a comeback during most of The '90s and The Aughts until the very early 2010s, although suits had more conventional schemes. A Sub-Trope of Impossibly Tacky Clothes. Contrast Sharp-Dressed Man (where the tux and the guy look good). Often found in a Lounge Lizard's wardrobe. |

The Simpsons: Homer wore a blue version with a ruffled shirt in contrasting pink to his high school prom in "The Way We Was". He gets a pass, though, as it was legitimately the style at the time (1974). | |

Harry is asked to accompany one of his patients to her middle school dance (he's a pediatrician) in an episode of Empty Nest. He pulls out his old powder blue tuxedo for the occasion. The girl then shows up to apologize, explaining that one of her classmates asked her to be his date instead... and, hilariously, the kid is wearing the exact same outfit. | |

Batman Beyond: Willie Watt wears an orange version to the spring dance in the episode "Golem". Made worse by the fact that other episodes show that future formal fashions are even more streamlined than those of today, meaning it was really, really out of date and it wasn't actually a formal occasion (the only guys are wearing pretty casual clothes). | |

In My Cousin Vinny, Vinny shows up to court wearing a particularly hideous old maroon tux he had obtained at the last minute from the thrift store. Not like he had much of a choice; the judge had ordered him to wear a suit, and the local dry cleaners were closed due to a flu outbreak, so it was either that or his casual clothes and leather jacket, of which he already knew the judge disapproved. | |

In an early storyline for General Protection Fault, the eponymous company gets invited to a black-tie event. While Nick and Dwayne end up picking sensible tuxedos, Fooker chooses this one. Amusingly enough, Nick complains about Ki and Trudy getting into a fight over wearing the same dress despite all the men wearing the same thing, only for Fooker to walk up to him. | |

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, poor Ron Weasley gets stuck wearing old-fashioned, hand-me-down, maroon dress robes to the Yule Ball. The film adaptation currently serves as the page image. It clashes horribly with his date's hot pink dress. At the end of the book, Harry gives his Triwizard winnings to Fred and George as capital for their joke shop on the condition that they get Ron a new set. | |

Glee: Apparently, Burt Hummel wore a deeply regrettable-sounding powder-blue tux with ruffled shirt and floppy bow-tie to his prom. It's probably a good thing that this is only described, not shown on-screen. What's even more mind-blowing is how Burt can admit to this and then get up nerve enough to criticise his son Kurt for planning to wear a very elegant formal kilt to his junior prom... And apparently Artie takes fashion advice from Burt, because the cherry-red outfit he wore to the junior prom made him look like Austin Powers. |

In the CollegeHumor sketch "Too Many Weddings," Zac is a guest at a wedding somewhere in the US every weekend that summer. He has a normal tux, but doesn't have time to patch it up or get it dry-cleaned in between each of the weddings he's attending, and it starts falling apart and being "patched up" with duct tape. He also wears a frilly, powder-blue tux from The '70s, when he is actually one of the groomsmen. | |

Samantha had to talk Dave out of putting everyone's last name and number on the back of their tuxes for their wedding (Dave's justification being that he and all his groomsmen were involved with sports somehow). |

The movie is set in 2004 and the girl is wearing a perfectly ordinary red spaghetti strap dress, so why he is dressed like that is never addressed. | |

In The Batman, The Penguin is shown wearing a tuxedo that's several sizes too big for him, with coattails that drag on the floor, sleeves that almost slip past his hands, a waistcoat that goes down to his knees, a bowtie the size of his face, and a top-hat as tall as he is. This bizarre ensemble, which he wears at all times, is a visual clue that the character is a classless boor putting on airs of refinement. | |

In Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, a mix-up at the tuxedo rental place causes Anthony's tux to be given to someone else. The only tux they have left in his size is a hideous powder blue one with a frilly shirt and a huge bow tie. He doesn't really mind this however and ends up wearing this to the prom. | |

In the backstory of Say It Thrice, Lydia sasses Beetlejuice about the tacky tux he wore for their almost-wedding in the movie, saying that both that outfit and the dress he gave her were beyond ridiculous. | |
