'Peanut vendor wearing suit made of peanuts': 30 Fashion-forward flops
It's about to get stylish in here. Ready for the latest looks right off the runway? Well, we have none of that. But we do have some truly bonkers fashion pieces that are certainly unique. They transcend the limits of time and normalcy to bring us shoes and shirts that only the quirkiest of us would ever wear.
In the world of highly specific subreddits, one of my favorites to keep an eye on is r/ATBGE. It highlights clothing, jewelry, or artwork that is made with "awful taste, but great execution." (And because it's Reddit, yes, there is also the exact opposite subreddit. It's called "good taste but awful execution," but it's not nearly as laugh-out-loud funny as it's sister subreddit.) It's a helpful way to think about art without being outright dismissive of quirky art: is the piece well-made, but just something no one in their right mind would wear? ATBGE! Art is highly subjective, so some of the fashions below will absolutely thrill the wearer. In fact, I bet some of that stuff is crazy expensive, too.
Feel free to tell us in the comments what outfit combo you'd wear for a night out on the town. Maybe you could wear the jeans helmet (aka the "jelmet") with the fuzzy vegetable sweater/shirt and the clear glass watch, for example. Stun! There are many such possibilities when you open your mind and embrace the utter silliness that these artists and oddballs bring to the world.
Check out these fashionable flops, then read about this customer who broke into an unopened store just because she needed camping equipment really bad, apparently.

I'd like to think that the creator paid close attention to which parts of their torso got too hot or too cold...
… And then made this unique work of octopus art that is their perfect jacket.

I have at least 100 questions about the high-heel Crocs (?) that this parent (?) is rocking at a crusy marina (???)
The stroller with no baby in it, the confusing pose, the shoes that aren't appropriate for any occasion… this photo has it all.
