An onslaught of the new meme trend posing a popular family question 'Why are you dressed like that' has taken Twitter by storm. Officially the last of 2020, the meme features hilarious relatable question thrown in the way of every teenager before they stepped out of homes for a get-together, or had probably made it to a family dinner table, with guests gawking at the 'awkward' outfit. 'why are you dressed like that,' is a statement familiar to the Indian households, hurled whenever a member's attire mismatched the occasion.

A trend sparked by the Twitter user Jade featured two images side-by-side. The first image portrayed a group of startled relatives watching the person in the image alongside, bewildered, as they find the outfit of the person in image two 'unsuitable'. The comical Twitter trend evoked sentiments among the netizens as they joked about the traditional extended family norms for questioning the ensembles that they truly thought were 'normal'. Users have now taken to their Twitter accounts to share photos of their questionable outfits and the nagging depiction of a family member or relatives aghast by the appearance.
