The Rose Family were not prepared in the slightest for their new life in Schitt’s Creek. From their normal routines to creature comforts, they seemingly lost everything in their move.

However, they were able to keep one thing, which was most of their wardrobe. This led to some unfortunate fashion blunders and incredible impractical outfit choices. While Johnny was usually dressed in the same suit, the rest of his family had some pretty loud outfits that turned heads and had viewers in shock at what they were wearing.

Everyone around them is dressed in Hawaiian shirts, whereas Moira and Johnny are in all white suits. With the lack of colors in Moira and Johnny’s outfits, compared to everyone else, it’s a hilarious contrast. Furthermore, the all-white outfits are not practical for Roland’s party, seeing as there’s bound to be a mess made, and the outfits are for sure to get ruined.

9 Moira’s PVC Dress

Once again, Moira’s outfit choices are a little questionable for the task at hand. When she agrees to do a photo shoot in a field, Moira shows up donned in a black PVC dress.

Not only is it weather impractical, but Moira’s movements are limited. Given that she’s shown up for a photo shoot, where she needs to move around, her limited mobility is an issue. Combined with her multi-layered necklace, and high-heeled boots, Moira looks like she’s going to a fashion show, not to go stand in a field for hours on end.

8 David’s Hiking Outfit

David and Patrick go on a romantic hike together in season 5, and naturally, David picks a fluffy black cardigan to pair with his black pants.

The pair spend the entire day hiking around in the heat, much to David’s annoyance and dismay, and his impractical outfit choices. He complains the entire time that he’s sweaty and uncomfortable, and it isn’t until Patrick gets down on one knee and proposes that David forgets all about his impractical outfit.

7 Moira’s Candidate Breakfast

During Moira’s run for town council, she shows up to the candidate breakfast wearing one of her signature over-the-top looks. The glamorous, jaw-dropping gold dress, paired with a gold handbag, sunglasses, and lipstick, is certainly an eye-catcher.

Arguably, it’s not the best outfit for a candidate breakfast, as it immediately sets Moira apart from the other candidates, with who she was already struggling to compete. Her impracticable outfit was nearly even more dramatic, as she tells Johnny that she almost went with a mohawk wig.

6 Moira’s Babysitting Outfit

In season 5, Moira and Johnny offer to babysit Roland Jr. after finding out that they were Jocelyn and Roland’s last choice. However, if Moira’s outfit is anything to go off, it’s easy to see why they were the last option.

Moira is dressed head to toe in sequins, she’s a walking choking hazard for baby Roland Jr. While it’s not her most impractical choice, it’s still not the smartest outfit for a night of babysitting and watching TV.

5 Moira’s Tourist Video

In a video, staring Moira, hoping to generate more tourists for the town, fans see her in an all-black latex outfit, matched with a white wig. Although the video upset the townspeople for many reasons, perhaps the biggest upset was Moira’s outfit.

The all-black attire stood out like a sore thumb against the town’s background, and again, her movement was limited thanks to the combination of skintight clothes and high heels. It’s jaw-dropping and confusing, the tell-tale signs of an iconic Moira outfit.

4 Moira’s Officiant Outfit

While arguably not as impractical as the rest of the list, Moira’s Officiant Outfit certainly turned a few heads. It was the show stealer at David and Patrick’s wedding and had everyone shocked.

Moira herself seemed almost unable to move in the ridiculously decadent outfit, the hat alone weighing her down. Moira has a habit of picking the most over-the-top outfits for everyday occasions, and while a wedding calls for fancy dress, this is definitely one that stole the show.

3 A Little Bit Alexis

“A Little Bit Alexis” will always be an iconic scene for fans of the show, and the actors themselves. The outfit Alexis wore for her Cabaret audition is one of the most iconic from the show.

It’s completely impractical. From the thigh-high boots to the short skirt length, Alexis has to adjust the outfit several times throughout her performance, almost flashing Jocelyn and Moira a few times. It’s not the best audition outfit, but Alexis wouldn’t be seen out in anything less glamorous.

2 David’s Black Mohawk Sweatshirt

In one of the most memorable scenes and episodes from the show, fans see David sitting in an Amish farm field with a black hoodie, holding a pitchfork.

The entire lead-up to this scene was hilarious, but David sitting in a field in a completely black outfit was the icing on the cake. The Amish farmers around him have dressed in plain and farm-appropriate outfits, whereas David is sitting under the summer heat in his entire black attire. Not exactly farm-approved clothing. It’s a great example of David’s growth throughout the series, given his stubbornness in this scene.

1 Moira’s Amish Country Outfit

In the same episode, fans see the family find David on the Amish farm, and Moira turns up in the most impractical outfit. Her focus is on her appearance, rather than her stubborn son.

Given that this was one of the first times the Rose family left Schitt’s Creek, Moira argues that she has to dress up, even though she knows they’re in for a long car ride. She also sports a pair of high heels that are not a good choice for all the country road walking the family does. Like her son, David, she must have been absolutely roasting in the all-black outfit, under the sun in the Amish farm fields.
