Humans have been making and designing clothes for thousands of years, and to this day, we still find ways to transform them and come up with something new time and time again. However, some attempts at doing so aren’t always successful and (nowadays) end up online for everyone to see and critique.
Today, we present you with a best-of-all-time compilation of badly designed clothing pieces we’ve previously featured on Bored Panda. They are the perfect proof that you can’t just slap some fabric together and call it a garment.
While you're scrolling through, don't forget to check out a conversation with freelance fashion designer Harriet Goodings, who kindly agreed to tell us more about dress design in particular.
Harriet says that the most important thing to consider when designing a dress while ensuring that it’s both stylish and comfortable is to think about what is setting the design apart from others.
"What is your design doing that your competitors aren’t? Maybe the way the fabric moves or the subtle details and simplicity are what make the style eye-catching. Making sure that getting into the dress is easy and not too fussy. Fabric plays a big role in comfort as well as style."
