Description: the dinosaur with obvious functions and turning them into garish baffling appendages whose purpose is the stuff of mystery and controversy but as always with evolution there's a method to the madness

Francis Lawrence

I wish that the circuses that were around now felt like they did then. They're not quite as elegant or as magical as they used to be. There was something about the old tent shows, the Big Top, the canvas, the lights, the sawdust, the hay and the animals that's just missing now. Now, it's all urbanized and maybe a little garish.

Anorexia is a response to cultural images of the female body - waiflike, angular - that both capitulates to the ideal and also mocks it, strips away all the ancillary signs of sexuality, strips away breasts and hips and butt and leaves in their place a garish caricature, a cruel cartoon of flesh and bone.

American Writer

Daniel Hannan

The 'Robben Island Bible' has arrived at the British Museum. It's a garish thing, its cover plastered with pink and gold Hindu images, designed to hide its contents. Within is the finest collection of words generated by human intelligence: the complete works of William Shakespeare.

British Politician

Kehinde Wiley

I started making work that I assumed would be far too garish, far too decadent, far too black for the world to care about. I, to this day, am thankful to whatever force there is out there that allows me to get away with painting the stories of people like me.

Lionel Shriver

Donald Trump wouldn't work on paper. Obnoxious, crass, boastful, and vulgar, with garish tastes and a Stepford wife - as a fictional character, he'd seem too crudely drawn. Even in a trashy airport thriller, readers wouldn't buy such a boor as president.

American Journalist

Soren Kierkegaard

People commonly travel the world over to see rivers and mountains, new stars, garish birds, freak fish, grotesque breeds of human; they fall into an animal stupor that gapes at existence and they think they have seen something.

Danish Philosopher

Clive Lewis

I've got uncles who wore garish stuff, you know, electric blue polyester suits, and they carried it off. But my dad never went down that path, he has never been into loud stuff. His style was fashionable, but never sharp.

Roisin Conaty

I like garish things: I like the 1970s and 1960s, and country music - that big-hair look. I don't go for nudes or beiges. My hair's naturally black - I bleach it. I don't go for subtleties.

Mark Fisher

Noir' has been talked about a great deal in the discussion of 'The Black Dahlia,' but De Palma's palllete couldn't be less monochrome; it's the very definition of garish.

British Writer

Paula Deen

Talking about money is garish. It's tacky.

American Chef

Garish often implies something is in poor taste or excessively flashy, suggesting a lack of sophistication or subtlety.

Negative Connotation

Use 'garish' to describe things that draw attention due to being overly bright or clashing colors.

Visual Impact

Avoid using 'garish' in formal situations; it might indicate a harsh or critical judgment.
