The 50 Most Ridiculous Outfits From New York Fashion Week 2012 - Neatorama

Okay, so you should be able to tell from the headline that this was a particularly bad year for fashion at the New York Fashion Show.

Granted, there are probably at least 10 outfits every year that make people want to break out in fits of laughter, but to have a whopping 50 examples, many of which look like they're straight out of a Sci-Fi movie from the 1960s, makes 2012 the year of Fashiongeddon.

Bask in the ridiculousness, show your friends so you can share a laugh together, and imagine the price tags attached to these examples of when good fashion design goes horribly wrong.

26 and 6 are awesome, iff those models are women. 13 was cool too, I know just the girl who could pull that off. And 1 was looking good until I figured those things were cats. So close.

So knit sweaters of Bart Simpson and shoes and hats that flip people the bird are supposed to be an art form? Looks like tacky trash to me. Sure, there are some pieces in the gallery which could be considered art, but get real-most of these pieces are a joke, and they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel of high fashion. And we get it, the 90s are back, but that doesn't mean bring back the worst of the 90s, unless you're a fashion designer who's just plain tapped out of ideas.

I don't think a lot of you are understanding the point of high fashion. The idea behind it is that it introduces all kinds of new and extreme concepts. But a lot of the ideas behind will trickle down and you'll see the concepts become commonplace in society.

It's a really interesting form of arm if you really take the time to understand it and see it's impacts on society.

These male models need to visit The Art of Manliness.

to be fair, these look like these are all done by the same 4 or 5 designers...so it looks like it was just a bad year for a couple incompetent people

Loved the cat one.

Looks like men will be wearing a lot of pajamas this year.

atanguay, it's for publicity. The most outrageous pictures are accompanied by the names behind them in the fashion press, then blogs and newspapers and magazines and a few of the readers are the industry's money people.

It still has never been explained to me why this stuff is created. No one actually BUYS and WEARS this kind of stuff do they? I've just never really understood.

Uh-oh. My daughter checked, and said she wouldn't be caught dead in #1.

I think they accidentally posted photos from the Gaga family reunion.

Numbers 47, 38 & 9 were pretty rainbows - I'd never wear them but I thought they were pretty. I LOVE the hat from 43, I'd never wear it but I'd probably wear the rest of the outfit. 36 would be just fine without that ridiculous solar system display on top. But No.20? Really? Why on earth would you want to wear that particular statement on that particular part of the anatomy? Are you sure she didn't have it on back-to-front?

I think the pieces with middle finger raised says volumes, they're mocking us. Seriously, is anyone even trying any more? Looks like someone raided a landfill.

So your 15 year old has a rather unique sense of style eh Miss C? Kitteh sweater FTW!

#26 and #4 are my favorites (to laugh at). Then I got to #1 and I swear, my 15-year-old would ADORE that outfit!
