* Jocelyn's hairstyles in ''[[A Knight's Tale]]'' have certainly evoked this response from many viewers. As someone on the movie's page put it, "It's time for me to style my hair. Handmaiden, fetch me the fork and the royal toaster!"

** Several of her dresses also qualify, making one wonder why she wasn't thrown out of the courtly areas after being mistaken for a street walker.

* The dreary [[Space Clothes|Starfleet pajamas]] from ''[[Star Trek: The Motion Picture|Star Trek the Motion Picture]]''. Compared to those, the red-tunic-black-trousers getup is practically the height of style.

* Erik's [[Hollywood Homely|pitiful excuse for a deformity]] in the film musical of ''[[Phantom of the Opera]]''—a story that revolves around Erik's hideousness.

** Also most of the costumes from the operas within the film, leading [[Cleolinda Jones]] to refer to them as "giant pink poodle-lady" and "[[The Princess Bride (film)|The Dread Pirate Roberts]] Corps de Ballet"

* ''[[Wild World of Batwoman|The Wild World Of Batwoman]]'': Batwoman. See [http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/2015/batwoman.gif here.] The best part? Actress Kathryn Victor assembled that thing ''from her own personal wardrobe.''

* ''[[Clash of the Titans]]'', specifically, the 2010 [[R Emake]], has made viewers both laugh and cringe at the utterly baffling plastic-looking "[[You Fail History Forever|armor]]" of the Olympian gods. It looked like the production team raided the local costume shop. The constant bombardment of <small>[[Lens Flare]]</small> in these scenes [[Special Effects Failure|doesn't help matters]].

* ''[[Zardoz]]'' has this in spades. [[Sean Connery]] + thigh high boots + what looks like a red diaper and suspenders made out of pipe insulation = [[Brain Bleach]]. For this, [[John Boorman]] has no excuse, but he does have an explanation (paraphrased): "Um, it was [[The Seventies]], and I was doing a ''lot'' of drugs. Frankly, even I'm not entirely sure what parts of the movie are about."

* The [[John Wayne]] version of ''[[True Grit]]''. Not only does she have an obviously 1960's hairstyle, Mattie also wears black nylon tights at the end of the movie.
