"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", we have all heard this phrase before. Tastes are subjective, and so far nothing new. Everyone has happened to buy something, convinced that it was the best thing ever and then received criticism. What we are asking today is: is it possible that someone thinks the clothes and accessories in these photos are beautiful? We initially thought it was impossible, yet someone wears rings with a tooth set in them, has bizarre nails to say the least or buys bags unsuitable for any context. These 15 photos show us that not everyone has good taste and that to take risks, even when dressing, it takes courage.

13. Here the rings set with teeth have made a qualitative leap: there are also gemstones to give some sparkle.

Fashion does not impose any restraint on the imagination and people are often more courageous than they seem. Some would call these clothes and accessories "trendy", others "kitsch". What's your opinion?
