Describe a person who wears unusual clothes
  • Who is he/she?

  • How do you know him/her?

  • What kind of clothes he/she wears?

  • Why do you consider that his/her clothing choices are weird?

Many people like to stay updated with the popular fashionable trends in recent times. However, there are some who prefer dressing unusually to set their own mark. One such person is Ranveer Singh, who is an actor. He is a celebrity known for his weird fashion choices and dressing style. I am an avid movie goer and his acting in a periodic film caught my attention. Ever since, I started following him on various social media platforms where he often posts pictures flaunting his latest clothing collection.

He mostly wears fusion clothes, sometimes mixed up with skirts and shirts along with absurd hairstyles. This kind of styling is considered weird by many as it takes a significant deviation from what is seen as a conventional way of dressing. He also wears flashy and bright outfits paired with heavy jewellery which is uncommon. This style is sometimes termed as statement fashion but in my view, it is outlandish and sometimes unintentionally funny.

I think his fashion choice is uncanny because it is out of the ordinary and projects a caricature like outlook. His wears clothes of bright fluorescent colours while attending shows which are mostly not preferred by a vast majority of people. He creates an impression with his style and there is always some kind of buzz around him with regards to his outfits. I would say, although his clothing is weird, he certainly sets a new trend everywhere he goes. It is an understatement to say that people like him for his style more than his acting.
