"You can tell these three characters are important, because they have the silliest outfits."

"Even by the time I had lovely, expensive things, I still wore them recklessly, not at all smart. I realised that if you’ve got fabulous gear on, especially as a man who’s an alien, you can wear it terribly casually. The very casualness of it draws attention to it. If you’re wearing cashmere or silk, the buttons don’t need to be done up right.”
Tom Baker on the costume worn by the Fourth Doctor in Doctor Who, Doctor Who Magazine 427

"This girl is wearing every piece of jewelry she owns! She looks like she went to Claire's, fell on a sales rack, and said 'I'll take it!'"
RuPaul's Drag Race contestant Bianca del Rio on fellow contestant Joslyn Fox

Following Rei into the shop, what happened next was a descent into a surreal world of Rei getting excited and happy as she almost maniacally went through dozens of second or even third hand outfits before assembling a wardrobe that could best be described of as “fabulously ghetto". It was an embracement of urban decay and poverty by a very wealthy individual.
Rei left the shop wearing a light, frilly Western style bridesmaid’s dress, a battered looking long jacket that had probably been donated to charity by a dead hobo, a paint-stained grey toque, threadbare red gloves with the fingers cut off, and combat boots two sizes too big for Rei that had probably first seen use shortly after Second Impact. The rest of her purchases were similarly eclectic, and Rei had actually asked to see some of the items that they store had been considering tossing as being too badly damaged to sell.
Everyone but Shinji just looked at Rei in exasperation at her bizarre choices.

King Dragon: So, you've finally... arrived. What the hell are you wearing?
Player: It's my ass-kicking outfit, bitch!

"Let's talk about the elephant in the room: Pagan Min. Yes, the man's name sounds like a Cantonese death metal band. Pagan Min. Yes, he looks like he stole someone's Joker Halloween costume. Pagan Min. Yes, he looks like he robbed a metrosexual pimp."
Rabi Ray Rana, Far Cry 4

"I want a wardrobe that toes the line between "hilarious and irreverant" and "literally a clown.""

She was dressed in a variety of clothes thrown over each other: odd clothes, dirty velvets, muddy lace, rips and holes through which other layers and styles could be seen. She looked, Richard thought, as if she'd done a midnight raid on the History of Fashion section of the Victoria and Albert museum, and was still wearing everything she'd taken.
Neil Gaiman, Neverwhere

I am blown away by this character design from Final Fantasy Tactics 2. This is JRPG insanity taken to a whole new level
This guy’s got bright yellow dungarees, a plunging v-neck vest, trumpet shoes, sleeveless sleeves, and a belt that’s far too big
That... sword?, that board-sized thermometer is chained to itself. He’s got dinner plates on his elbows and a pizza(?) in his bag
There’s just green shit everywhere. Looks a ripped tarp wrapped around a fence post. And little daggers everywhere. Holy moly. A masterpiece
Imagine going through airport security with that get up
