Who doesn't love a theme party?

When you not only get to dress up in something completely over the top, but also get to bear witness to everyone else's zany outfits in-keeping with the party's theme.

Be it Regency era, glam rock, or fairy tale villains.

Or what if the challenge is just to be blatantly inappropriate?

A theme which got the imagination of Redditor StockD0ctorStockD0ctor running wild, resulting in their taking to Reddit to ask:

"You are going to a party. The theme is dress inappropriately. Who or what do you dress as?"


And not on your foot, one imagines...

"Nothing but a tube sock."- Sanguiniutron

Reverse Psychology

"Dress normally, because if the theme is to dress inappropriately, and you dress appropriately, technically you're the one being inappropriate for the occasion."- GoAwayImHereForMemes

"I've actually been in a completely opposite situation."

"Was invited to a art exhibition, came in well dressed. It was basically porn but the person I went with forgot to mention that."

"I felt very malplace standing around people wearing next to nothing."

"So I would probably do that again because what's more inappropriate than being appropriate at an inappropriate event?"- cccantyousee

"I mean, if dressing inappropriately is the appropriate attire, then dressing appropriately would be inappropriate for the party, thus, making it appropriate."

"Now that I think about it, it's an unsolvable paradox."

"You could never appropriately dress inappropriately."- MUNKIESS

It's all in the details

"A suit."

"With the pants cuffs rolled up, wearing tevas with gym socks."- BitPoet

And they say you can only wear it once...

"Bridal gown."- fromhelley

Depends on your surroundings...

"Imma wear a parka."

"In South Texas."

"In August."- Ahshalon_Tenisk

The question is, what aren't you wearing...

"Nothing I'd just show up in lingerie."- cloboehobo

Wrong on so many levels...

"A two sizes to small wrestling singlet, and crocs."- thirdtimer_2020

There's little more fun than facing the challenge of dressing to impress.

Or, in this instance, un-dressing to impress.

And if you are greeted by a round of shocked expressions, you know your choice of outfit was a success.

People Describe The Most Insane Event They've Ever Witnessed

Chaos is, according to the lexicographers at Oxford, a "state of complete disorder and confusion."

Humans find chaos entertaining to watch—hence the popularity of so-called reality TV—but not as much fun to be in the thick of. People may love the moment a "Real Housewife" flips a table, but would be less thrilled if a family member did it during dinner.

Kim Kardashian Mocked For Beige 'Ozempic Santa' In NYC Skims Store—And This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Santa Claus has survived centuries of tradition, but he was no match for beige, shapewear, or Kim Kardashian. A holiday TikTok posted last Monday to the SKIMS account sparked widespread mockery after showing Santa Claus visiting the brand’s New York City flagship store in a look that was unmistakably on-brand.

Gone was the iconic red velvet suit. In its place was a muted beige ensemble that looked less North Pole and more minimalist showroom chic.

Guy Calls Out Bugles For 'Ruining' His Childhood After They Changed Their Iconic Shape

Possibly more than any other generation, Millennials were raised with interactive snacks and candies. From dippable cookies and candies to chips perfectly shaped for scooping and build-your-own pizzas, consumers found the interactive experience to be more important than the food itself.

Bugles are a fan favorite example, because while the chips were tasty and crispy, with a solid variety of flavors to choose from, the real point of them was their iconic shape, like the mouth of a bugle horn. Though we didn't openly talk about it at the time, it was a Millennial pastime to put the Bugles on our fingers like long nails, pretending we were fashionistas and gremlins and vampires.
