Well, well, well, look at them young folks and their weird dress these days! Back in my day, we just wore what we had, didn’t matter if it was fancy or not. But these days? Oh boy!

I saw this one girl the other day, she was wearin’ a dress made outta, I kid you not, plastic bottles! Now, I’ve seen a lot of things in my time, but that took the cake. She looked like a walking, talkin’ trash can, bless her heart. And these shoes! These kids wearin’ shoes bigger than my head! I don’t know how they don’t trip and fall. It’s just crazy. But I guess fashion is very different for them.
And don’t even get me started on the colors! Pink hair, blue hair, green hair… It’s like a rainbow threw up on their heads. I mean, who would want pink hair? One time, I saw a man wearing a dress. A grown man in a dress! And then he was wearing these high heel shoes, too! Can you believe it? I just don’t get it. But hey, to each their own, I suppose. We used to just wear what was practical. A good pair of overalls could get you through anything. Now these famous folks, they wear the craziest things.
They call them “celebrities,” these fancy people on the TV. Always in some weird dress or another. Like, one time, I saw this lady, she was wearin’ a dress made entirely of meat! Can you believe it? Meat! I coulda made a whole stew with that dress. These celebrity red carpet moments are just something else, let me tell you. I saw this other girl, she had a dress with feathers all over it. Like a big ol’ chicken! It’s like they’re trying to be the least dressed red carpet celebrities. And those celebrity red carpet outfits! I don’t know what they are thinkin’! All those sparkly things, like they’re goin’ to a disco. It’s just a lot.
I remember this one time I saw a photo of two of those singer people, Britney and Justin. At some kind of awards show thing. Now, I don’t know much about these Z-list celebrities, but they were wearing outfits made of denim. Head to toe, denim! Jeans, jackets, hats, even their shoes were made of jeans! It’s like they robbed a denim factory or somethin’. I guess if that’s fashion these days. Back in my day, you’d wear denim if you were working in the field, not to some fancy party. Now, that’s what I call a weird dress moment.
Some of these famous people. They are just famous for being famous, you know? Not for doing anything special. Just for wearing weird dress clothes and being on TV. I guess that’s enough for some folks. In the city I saw all kinds of weird clothes. I don’t know, maybe there are hundreds of thousands of them. These famous people. Too many, if you ask me. They must have a lot of money to spend it on all those strange clothes. I guess if they didn’t wear those strange things no one would pay them any mind.

And the things they wear to those red carpet things! It’s like a competition to see who can wear the craziest outfit. They got dresses that look like they’re made of tin foil, dresses that look like they’re made of curtains, dresses that look like they’re not even there at all!
- One time, I saw a lady wearing a dress that looked like a big ol’ swan. A swan!
- Another time, there was this fella wearing a suit that was covered in mirrors. He looked like a disco ball!
- And then there was this girl who wore a dress made out of, I kid you not, caution tape! Like the kind they use at construction sites!
I just don’t understand it. Why would you want to look like a swan, or a disco ball, or a construction site? I guess it’s all about getting attention. But I think it’s better to get attention for something good, like being kind, or helpful, or making a really good pie. That’s just me. Maybe I just don’t understand this weird dress stuff.
I guess fashion is just different now. It’s all about being different and standing out. But back in my day, we didn’t need all that fancy stuff to be happy. We had good company, good food, and good times. And that’s all that really matters, isn’t it? These young folks and their weird dress, they just don’t know what they’re missin’.
But I don’t know, maybe I’m just old-fashioned. Maybe I just don’t get it. But I still think a good pair of overalls and a simple dress are all you really need. They are practical. They will last a long time. These weird dress things won’t. They are just for show. They aren’t practical. How can you work wearing something like that? You can’t. It just isn’t practical.
