Terrible fashions!! What is the most embarrassing thing you have worn?

Question

Everyone has made the odd fashion faux pas, when you look back at old photos do you cringe and wonder why anyone let you out of the house looking like that? I wore leg warmers in the 80's and ear muffs, and have made many fashion errors, but ear muffs have got to be the worst ever!

Answer 1

PARACHUTE PANTS!!!

They were popular back in the 1980's. They were made of something that felt like a nylon-plastic. They were horrible! (lucky that I was never in a fire ;-)

Answer 2

Red and white striped socks, clear jelly bean sandals, a hitch up skirt and a red vest over my white t-shirt. Oh yes a red double loop belt. It was the '80s.

I also had a big box t-shirt that had Wham written on it.

Black leggings and blue and white stripped leg warmers....was into the whole flashdance thing. Only i looked like an apple with toothpicks in istead of a sexy dancer.

Answer 3

You're extremely brave to admit that!

I think the 80s were the decade that style forgot (as opposed to the 70s) and almost everything everyone wore during that time is cringingly embarrassing - especially leggings - yuk! The very worst ones are flesh coloured ones - don't even begin to form a mental picture - it will haunt you for life!

Answer 4

fish net stockings with a garter and cut off short short levis. The 80's rocker-**** look. I also had big hair. I still kinda like big hair though. AND, at least I never wore ear muffs! J/K ;)

Answer 5

Ha Ha I cannot beat the ear muffs but I can compete with (80's again) glitter gel in the hair, balloon skirts and pink double loop belts with studs on - all at once!

Answer 6

sure you're able to yet be severe-high quality approximately it. If I have been you i could only start up making comments like that's so magnificent. I fairly have been noticing that stuff in my underclothes draw has been moved and my shoes are never interior an identical place. See what he says. See what happens over the subsequent following days. Does an identical element ensue or end.

Answer 7

A blue Japanese robe with patterned with red and gold pictures... or was it the tight 'Rocky Horror' girl's T-shirt with the pink sleeves. Perhaps my semi-goth bondage trousers and shirt with my hair done up in bobs? Actually, that last one was pretty cool, so was the robe... but I have too much of a belly to carry off a tiny tight T-shirt, I realise that now... I think that I maybe ought to have given it a miss... I had a Kaftan too... fantastic, no way that was a fashion mistake... I think I'll go dig it out of the wardrobe ;)

Answer 8

I once bought what seemed a bargain - four suits for the price of two! The idea was that you had two jackets and two trousers, and they were interchangeable to give four different outfits. Except they weren't! They didn't go together at all. When I see photo's of myself I just want to crawl off!

Answer 9

I made a 5-minute visit to the world of poserdome many years ago. I had a sparkly silver dress thingy and sparkly silver shoes. My god. but I've never been hit on so much in my life. I think the dress must have said **** me
Now safely back in to the rock-chic type.
Never again!!!

Answer 10

A tartan puff ball skirt and matching bolero jacket!!!! OK i'm not trying to excuse it, but it was the 80's and it was very fashionable then (allegedly) although looking back I really can't see how!

PS I think I was only about 10 - so really it was probably my mum's fault!!!!!!!!

Answer 11

lol, when I was a teenager, I used to wear my brothers black heavy metal tees with a flannalette shirt over the top...with a floral skirt. Hmmmm, thank heavens no photos were ever taken of that! Its no wonder I never had a boyfriend! lol
