Off My Mind: Why are Zombies Such Poor Dressers

Shaun of the Dead!? 
In the house at the beginning the zombie who comes through the front door is wearing a tux I swear :D 
But this is  CV not Screened :P

Discrimination against zombies is truly a plague of our times. Zombies are marginalized and typecast as poor dressers in every medium.  Stand up for undead rights!
 

Maybe they´re afraid that people wouldn´t be so scared of them anymore, If they´d dress up properly. Or maybe, for the Zombies that IS the newest fashion! :D
Bloody red is the new black!

G-Man, you have quite an odd thinking process and seemingly much too much time.
 
Also, I am pretty sure there have been a few well dressed zombies in The Walking Dead.

Only when someone turns into a zombie do they look nice. that's assuming they aren't already surviving the apocalypse and looking dirty. Also think about it, zombies would fall on the ground and then become covered in dirt. Their bite marks  and wounds would bleed onto their clothes and they wouldn't care about their clothing anymore

if you think about it, in real life if there were a zombie outbreak alot of them would be naked. i mean from what we generally see they arent the most coordinated enteties, they would be ripping people/peoples clothes apart, snaggin sleeves and stuff on sharp corners.

a better question, why dont their clothes eventually rot off?

rather have zombies then twilight vampires !!!!

I seen some in red dead redemption undead nightmare

Zombies eat people. That's where the blood comes from.

What about Dead Girl? 
 

Because if you are wearing a clean set of clothes and a zombie attacks you, your clothes get ripped to pieces and you get blood/dirt all over your clothes, thus the trend.
 
I also think it [clothes] just turns that way because when you are running away from zombies, you just do whatever it takes so you don't get killed. Like hiding inside a garbage bin or something.

" Zombies are people too...sort of. "

Zombies do seem to be on the far end of the fashion spectrum. Vampires get to be on the other end, with Werewolves somewhere in the middle.

"Have you ever seen a well-dressed zombie?"

Yup, in last night's episode of Community: zombie-Jeff in a $5000 suit.

(Alternatively, any number of twig-like runway models would also fit the bill: zombiesque emaciated bodies + insatiable  hunger + designer clothes... it's all there!)

I guess the tattered and stained clothing adds to the decaying and gory "feel" of the zombies, I also think it's possibly used to help accentuate the fact that they are infact zombies, especially when they are still comparatively fresh zombies and don't yet have a rotting appearance, missing chunks of their body, or bullet holes. Otherwise the only way to distinguish a fresh zombie from a living person would be it's glazed eyes, it's swagger, and any apparent bite marks, which aren't as noticeable from a distance.

Zombies hate fashion.

Well I think it stems from the original zombie archetype of them popping up from the grave, so all that digging up through the coffin and dirt did that to them. Also when they don't do that and they're a zombie for a few days they spend those days sitting there and shitting their pants without showers as their skin peels and bleeds through their clothes.

Yeah the girl from I,Zombie Dresses pretty good and headpool kept his mask on for like ever, Professor Veronica was also dressed pretty well after she turned zombie. What they gotta do is make a Tim Gunn Zombie and he can go around dressing the other Zombies.

If you are someone that considers the 28 days later "infected" to be zombies, then the scene where the one character gets the blood dripped in his eye which leads to an almost immediate zombification. He was a well dressed man for the duration of his malady.

" @G-Man: erm... "

Does Emperor Zombie from The Amazing Screw-on Head count? He was a rather dapper dressed corpse person.

Perhaps someone can prove me wrong. Have you ever seen a well-dressed zombie?

"I'm sure we will see well-dressed pretty-boy emo zombies in films soon enough... and they'll probably fall in love with a... human! :) "

To be fair, it's a bit difficult for zombies to even consider such minor obstacles as clothing when the all consuming hunger of brain munching is upon them.  As such, it's difficult to conceive of them having the following questions running through their minds:
 
Would the current meal I'm getting ready to consume of fava beans, brains and a nice Chianti be best represented by my pinstriped suit or should I leave the tie off ?   
 
or
 
While chasing down fleeing humans with my friends, should I consider the Nike shock absorbent running shoes and a comfortable track suit ?

I'm sure we will see well-dressed pretty-boy emo zombies in films soon enough... and they'll probably fall in love with a... human! :)

Maybe that guy from Wormwood.

OK.

Zombies are people too...sort of.

So G-Man wants to see gentlemen zombies?
