Pictures: Trends We Love to Hate

Unless you’re a belly dancer or a beach volleyball player, showing us your midsection is completely unnecessary. Yes, we know you’re skinny/ripped, but that doesn’t mean we want to witness the abdominal flexing.  (Bryan Bedder/Getty Images)

Since when is MC Hammer a style icon to follow -- you know, after 1992? They might be airy and comfortable, but they do your lower half no favors other than excellent ventilation. Next time, consider a skirt.  (Ian Gavan/Getty Images)

Believe it or not, some people (yes, men included) prefer to have something left to imagination. We know, crazy, right? Who doesn’t want to evoke Dita Von Teese on performance night?  (Stuart Wilson/Getty Images)

Not only can .01% of the female population pull off this look (see Barbie incarnate, above), we consider them to be sartorially lazy. Another issue: you have to pretty much strip down completely to use the ladies’ room.  (Bryan Bedder/Getty Images)

Like the romper, the jumpsuit is as lazy as an article of clothing can get. What do you do when you can’t find a top to match your pants? Just extend the pants until they’ve settled under your armpits. You know, the Urkel method.  (Stephen Lovekin/Getty Images)

We’re mostly focusing on the incredibly unhealthy-looking variety. If you don’t like your hair as it is, adding cast-offs from a pop-up Halloween store isn’t going to improve much.  (Gary Gershoff/Getty Images for NAMM)

This might be acceptable on a PETA-conscious shoe, but as a fabric choice is screams “poor man’s dominatrixâ€� or “1970s sofa.â€� And an outfit definitely needs a time out after that kind of outburst.  (Michael Loccisano/Getty Images)

Don’t let the perky pink bow and cotton-candy dye job fool you. No one likes being confused with a My Little Pony.  (Jean Baptiste Lacroix/WireImage)

We were under the impression that headbands were supposed to keep your hair back, not simultaneously flatten your hair to your head, give you a migraine and leave an unfortunate red mark on your noggin. Shows what we know.  (Scott Wintrow/Getty Images)

The last time we sported this look it was en vogue at Gap Kids. Then we discovered skirts and pants. It was a vital revelation.  (Arnaldo Magnani/Getty Images)
