13. American Hustle

See that Rolex? It was made in 2010, but the movie takes place in the '70s. Weird.

14. Dirty Dancing

Throughout the film, Baby can be seen sporting a cute pair of denim shorts that were made popular throughout the 1980s. Too bad the film was set in the '60s!

15. Gladiator

In this iconic scene, Russel Crowe's shorts can be seen underneath his tunic, and I think it's safe to say that nobody in Ancient Rome had bike shorts...

COMMENT and let us know what other movie goofs you've spotted
TV/MoviesRe: 15 Worst Costume Mistakes In Film History by midolian(op): 8:27am On Oct 23, 2016
10. Pearl Harbour

Almost none of the women in the film are seen wearing nylon stockings, even though this was commonplace before WWII.

11. The Ten Commandments

Though this film has a ton of historical inaccuracies, one of the most obvious is Nefertiti's dress. The dye needed to make a dress that color simply doesn't exist in nature and therefore couldn't be made at that time in history. 

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/46685c97-caaa-413b-ae42-7ab81a99ea56.jpg?impolicy=mobile

12. Amadeus

Many outfits throughout the film have zippers, even though they weren't invented until 120 years after Mozart's death.

7. Singin' In The Rain

The pink, poofy gown that Cathy wears in this scene was a very popular look in the 1950s, however the film is supposed to take place in the '20s. Awkward...

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/9de406b1-ffde-4548-8b61-c925999f0666.jpg?impolicy=mobile

8. Seabiscuit

If you pay attention to the jockeys you'll notice that all of them are wearing chinstraps. This was a feature that wasn't introduced to horseracing until 1956, however the film takes place in the '30s. 

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/c6f18590-ebdd-44fa-9ae0-cb298812f6a9.jpg?impolicy=mobile

9. The Aviator

These thin, frameless glasses that Robert Gross wears are far too modern of a look for the 1920s.

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/6ea6c0cd-57bb-4d3f-b53f-b88c52ed2415.jpg?impolicy=mobile
TV/MoviesRe: 15 Worst Costume Mistakes In Film History by midolian(op): 8:14am On Oct 23, 2016
4. Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade

All of those Nazis that Harrison Ford fights are wearing war medals that were used during WWII. However, the film is supposed to take place before the war even happened.

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/dd940297-4350-46fd-ac37-5b334e12af63.jpg?impolicy=mobile

5. Schindler's List

Have you ever noticed that all of the women in the film have shaven legs and armpits? Not only is it hard to believe that the women in the concentration camps were so concerned about their body hair, but shaving wasn't much of a trend for European women in the 1940s. 

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/4df5c1c0-2d40-49bb-bef1-4e96896b59fb.jpg?impolicy=mobile

6. Pirates Of The Caribbean

Have you ever noticed the random cowboy in this scene of the movie? He must not have gotten the memo that they were playing pirates...

TV/MoviesRe: 15 Worst Costume Mistakes In Film History by midolian(op): 8:07am On Oct 23, 2016
2. Django Unchained

Despite the fact that sunglasses weren't worn in America until the year 1929, Jamie Foxx can be seen sporting a nice pair throughout this Tarantino epic set about 70 years prior.

https://img.diply.com/article-images/a/e54990b4-b2a9-4340-b41a-1de0ad7402b2.jpg?impolicy=mobile

3. My Girl

Remember Vada's mood ring? Well it must give her the power to travel through time because these weren't invented until three years after the film is supposed to take place.

TV/Movies15 Worst Costume Mistakes In Film History by midolian(op): 8:04am On Oct 23, 2016
Okay, I'll admit that I'm not one to notice the small details of life. I remember when I first got my drivers license and got behind the wheel that I couldn't remember how to get to certain places that I'd been to millions of times before. I was just used to being taken there while I daydreamed in the passenger seat!

But this lack of attention to detail has definitely gotten me concerned, especially when I realized I missed a few of THESE major costume mistakes in my favorite movies. 

1. Braveheart

History has proven that people in Scotland didn't wear kilts until about the 16th century. However, Mel Gibson's character can be seen rocking one throughout the entire Braveheart movie, which takes place in the 1300s.

I know you will support anything that has to do with Hausa-fulanis reason being a yoruba Muslim. As far as I am concerned Fayose has done something commendable in the eyes of many not the paid agents on social media.
let me put it to you that I am neither yoruba nor Hausa. I just don't know how to have a head/brain without using it.

Abegi, this has nothing to do with cowardice. This is wisdom! This is diplomacy! It takes people with wisdom to reason like him. In the end, it's the innocents that will suffer..so why not handle it with sense?

It takes a lotta wisdom to kill a fly perching on ones scrotum. You don't use weapons to do that. Think!

If you kill someone, I do not know why the penalty for such offence is not being killed the way n manner in which you committed that offence..i.e you beat someone to death, you get the same treatment (get beaten to death).
