The Worst Men's Fashion Mistakes

When Hollywood fashion is good, it's simply the best. When it's bad, it's an epic disaster. From speedos to tight pants to ridiculous hats, here are the top trends no man should ever try.

Just who came up with this fascinating piece of apparel? Let's think this thing through: a tiny, 5-inch strip of fabric is the only thing standing between your butt and the world.   Unless you're a pro swimmer, in what scenario is a Speedo anything but awkward? Even if you've got a body built like this guy, lose the Speedo for some trunks. 

Designer Giorgio Armani is a repeat offender with this trend. You can't design yourself some pants, buddy? <a href="http://x17online.com/gallery/by_celebrity" target="_blank">For more Giorgio photos, visit X17Online.com</a>

Let's just say there's a reason that you only see pinky rings on guys like this.  The first two words that come to our minds when we see an over-the-top pinky ring? "Mobster" and "tool." Just sayin'.

We don't care if the mullet is "business in the front, party in the back." It's always ugly. Sorry, Michael Bolton, your soulful stare does nothing to salvage the painful mess that is your strange leonine do.

Yikes.  We hope that most guys know better than Cristiano Ronaldo, who seems to be courting the inevitable resemblance to a cheerleader. Boys, we understand that the summer days get hot, but that's no excuse to dress like your little sister.  Even if you're built like this guy, avoid the short shorts. <a href="http://x17online.com/gallery/index.php?tab=by_celebrity&amp;celebrity=Cristiano+Ronaldo" target="_blank">For more Cristiano photos, visit X17Online.com</a> (X17online.com)

We're still trying to figure out who came up with the idea for creating these nasty plastic shoes. They look like the misbegotten love children of rubber swimming flippers and those heinous L.L. Bean duck boots.  We get it: they're great on the beach and they're sooooo comfortable. But seriously? How did these things ever get so popular? Crocs are proof that H.L. Mencken was right: "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public."

Just when you thought Ron Jeremy couldn't get any less stylish, he whips out these bad boys for a night on the town.   <a href="http://x17online.com/gallery/index.php?tab=by_celebrity&amp;celebrity=Ron+Jeremy" target="_blank">Click here for more Ron photos, if you really want to see them.</a>

If you're losing it on top, be a man and admit it. The combover fools nobody. Going bald doesn't have get this ugly.

Trump has all but trademarked the combover, even going so far as to rock it with two different hair colors. In fact he is SO often seen with the combover that he has tricked us all into almost thinking it looks ok.  Almost.

Unless you're in a punk band, leave skinny jeans to 12-year-old girls. Actually, even if you're in a punk band, don't go here.

Really, how does Russell Brand even get himself INTO those things? A size (or four) up wouldn't kill ya.   <a href="http://x17online.com/gallery/index.php?tab=by_celebrity&amp;celebrity=Russell+Brand" target="_blank">Click here for more Russell Brand photos from X17Online.com</a> (X17online.com)

Oh Hulk Hogan, you sneaky dog! That ridiculous shirt and mandana combo is a clever trick, but alas, they are not enough to render your leather fanny pack invisible.
