Thankfully, Instagram account @asbos_sos is doing a stellar job at compiling the most outrageous outfits – and Asos is in on the joke. For April Fools, Asos welcomed @asbos_sos for an Instagram takeover in which they picked their favourite pieces, including (of course) see-through plastic cargo shorts, a mesh safari-style jacket, and a neon-fringed skirt.
So for a few lunchtime lolz, these are our top Asos/Absos outfits to leave you bemused and confused in equal measure.
