Is alternative fashion for the brave? 12 photographs here say yes
Clothing is not only useful functionally, but is also a way to express one's personality and tastes. Clothes, shoes, accessories and hairstyles are the vehicles which many people use to express their "inner-most souls".
And if some fashion designs can have us gaping in amazement, we should be sensitive to those who have "unconventional" fashion tastes. There are many ways to express individuality and certainly, fashion is one of them.
For this reason, wearing unconventional garments is for the courageous: after all, it takes nerve and courage to buck "acceptable" trends. We must find the courage to say "no" to stereotypes and choose attire that we are comfortable with - even if it attracts stares!
Below are 12 examples of "courageous fashion statements":
1. Handbag or weapon?
This looks like the armored skin of a prehistoric animal!
2. A vegetarian party dress
Perhaps also useful for emergency snacking?
3. Shoes with two heels
How difficult will it be to walk in these?
4. Slipknot jeans
These jeans seem to have been inspired by the creepy masks worn by the 90s heavy metal band.
5. Feet in heels
How hideous are these foot-shaped shoes? Its' debatable whether the high-heels add any elegance!
6. Superhero sunglasses
How uncomfortable will these be on a scale of 1 to 10?
7. The office rat
Not to be discriminatory, but this is a tad disgusting.
8. Stuffed animals dress
Returning to childhood in 3,2,1...
9. A 4th century haircut
This hairstyle wasn't attractive even when all the friars had it in the Middle Ages... and even the rainbow colors don't improve it very much!
10. Positive and negative
Did they run out of fabric while making this dress?
11. What is this?
It's okay to be eccentric... but perhaps this is beyond the pale!
12. Shocking hair
Maybe this is one way to ask for help!
Have you ever seen bizarre fashion statements like this where you live?
