Rubbing blue-collar grit and grime against sterile futurism and free-love hippie nostalgia, Mr. Mitchell shows — as he did in his 2001 debut, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," and the dizzily hedonistic "Shortbus" five years later — his talent for imbuing outré sex with a joyful, youthful innocence.

It's that time of year, friends — the Coachella Valley Music and Arts festival is soon to descend on Indio, CA for a two-weekend-long orgy of music, surprisingly awesome food, and of course, the most outré and eye-candy-ish attire that concert-goers can pack into their cars.

There are highfalutin concepts and obscure album titles and even more obscure lyrical references, but more often than not, Longstreth's songwriting and arrangement prowess, and the musicians he surrounds himself with, transcends any weightiness of pretension, instead using these outré concepts to obfuscate obvious meaning in an attempt at something larger.

Advertised as a "contemporary cabinet of curiosities," the store resembles an outré natural history museum with artist-made products like armored copper lamps standing on brass octopus tentacles and hawk's feet; bird and snake specimens mounted in frames as art; and rings cradling large chunks of rock crystal and pyrite.

A Japanese designer discovered last season by the stylist Katie Grand and Marc Jacobs, Mr. Koizumi became almost immediately famous in fashionland for embracing the outré: mountains of tulle, ruffles and candy-colored cornucopias that had little recognizable relationship to clothes, other than the fact they were put on the body.

There's also something charming about coming to his personal space — and prospective buyers can imagine how they, too, could style some of the more outré pieces — and about the slight chaos that accompanies Baruch, thanks to his pinging phone and the stream of delivery men picking up or dropping off packages.

From the outsider anthems of their earliest work to the dial-up tone deconstructions of Jonny Greenwood's more outré guitar solos, Radiohead has always made music that's fascinated with the idea of connecting—the struggle and strain to form real human bonds in spite of a social climate that intensely favors isolation.

Likely, though, when her clothes reach stores, some of the more outré styling elements will have fallen away and consumers will be left with things like finely proportioned shorts and trousers that are more consistent with current trends among the cool dudes of Tokyo and Seoul, South Korea, than much in Italian design.

It's a culture that fizzed with glamour, drama, and excitement in the 90s and early 00s, but that scene—which once thrived at club nights like Trade and FF at Turnmill's, Garage and Pyramid at Heaven, New York's The Cock, and at Michael Alig's outré events—has dissipated into the stuff of legend.

It's a record that feels fully formed, from the Backstreet Boys-sounding "Take Me as I Am" to more outré tracks like "Through the Wire" and "Cyber Stockholm Syndrome", which moves from ambient pop balladry to a 2000s hip-hop style beat to a dense peak anchored by a psych-rock guitar solo.

Next thing: Being an outré Hollywood colorist means that he is subject to the whims of his high-profile clients, whether that means turning Katy Perry's hair a shade of "muppet-referenced, sherbet-pink orange" or providing Zoe Kravitz a "blond moment that will withstand the history of time" for Allure magazine.

They also sorta tread the line of the more outré realms of contemporary rap—the blistered sounds they use aren't all that far from the in-the-red excursions of Pi'erre Bourne and Ronny J—and the pinched, rhythmic screams they unleash aren't all that far removed from someone like the masked UK MC Scarlxrd.

Their performances are not different in kind to Christian giving a speech at the opening of a new exhibition, or giving an interview in which he indulges in ridiculous (but typical) artspeak, or the hipster marketing team that comes into the museum to convince the staff to sign onto a new, outré advertising campaign.

The Nordic region is no stranger to reality TV. But its homegrown fare tends to be either very wholesome — a show about cutting, stacking and burning firewood in Norway, for example — or decidedly more outré — like the purported comedy "Gay Army," in which gay men are subjected to military training by a drill sergeant.

Luckily, the last decade of experimental electronic music has seen nothing less than a renaissance when it comes to New Age-leaning sounds, from the kaleidoscopic fantasias of Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith and the fractalized outré-pop of Visible Cloaks to Mark McGuire's funhouse guitar loops and the synthy sprawl of Oneohtrix Point Never's early work.

" In "Germany and the Germans", a book about Helmut Kohl's Germany in the mid-1990s, John Ardagh, a British writer, tells the story of a German friend who was tempted to buy a pair of outré earrings in Lyon, but decided against them because "I knew I could never wear them here…people would have been genuinely shocked.

They both worked on Ronald Reagan's campaign in 1980, and then they joined Charles R. Black, Jr., to form the Washington lobbying firm Black, Manafort, and Stone—which thrived for the better part of the decade, often representing dictators like Ferdinand Marcos, of the Philippines, and Mobutu Sese Seko, of Zaire, as well as other outré clients.

The latter half of his career, after he grew restless with the art world and moved into cartoonish public sculpture, collaborating with his second wife, the art historian Coosje van Bruggen (who died in 19623), has somewhat obscured his outré spirit — in part because many of the outdoor works, funny and toylike, have become so civically beloved.

And for all the frothy outré humor that fell out of the closet with him, whether the hot pants and fly boots created by the Mr. Freedom founder Tommy Roberts in the 1970s or the feathery showgirl-inspired costumes from Bob Mackie during the 1980s, stage outfits also offered a dazzling armor against the gaze of the outside world.

" Later, as his career takes off, he finds the courage to go into a wild new clothing shop in Chelsea where he is introduced to the outré fashion that became his trademark: "I felt different, like I was expressing a side of my personality that I'd kept hidden, a desire to be outrageous and over-the-top.

Myers sees the popularity of Ask A Porn Star as a piece of the rise of "normal" porn performers like Sasha Grey, who stood in contrast to the more outré stars who gained mainstream popularity in the 1990s, like Jenna Jameson, the epitome of the big-breasted blonde archetype, and the hirsute, rotund Ron Jeremy, who represented the other extreme pornstar stockplayer.

Uncle Kouzuki (played in dashingly sinister style by Jo Jin-woong), a book collector with his tongue blackened by ink, also plans to marry his niece, secure her fortune and satisfy his social pretentions and depraved lusts (those books and scrolls he has so diligently amassed turn out to be outré works of pornography.) Yet Lady Hideko has hidden depths, too.

In its moments of grandeur I hear post-rock greats like A Winged Victory for the Sullen, and smaller moments remind me of the lonely Sandy Bull or even Sufjan Stevens' more outré impulses (all of which basically means its a worthy companion to the solitary vision of Appalachia in Jenks Miller's solo work or Villages' earthy instrumentals on Bathetic Records).

The clues drawn from the details in these pictures allude to the divisive, reactionary politics that have been at work over the past half-century; their historical specificity grounds the flagrantly outré goings-on — and there are a lot of them — in a nightmarish reality that feels, upon reflection, not all that far removed from the ugliness we're witnessing in the paintings.

IN THE LAND OF MENBy Adrienne Miller Reading Adrienne Miller's account of her decade-plus working at men's magazines during the glory days of print journalism, I was reminded of how, in the 1990s, it was seen as daring and even outré for educated liberal men, reacting to the perceived scourge of political correctness, to say demeaning things to women.

Mr. Nygard is among the more outré figures strutting a red carpet that tends also to feature Oscar royalty (Jon Voight, Shirley Jones, Martin Landau), actor stalwarts, former sitcom parents (Alan Thicke), a gadfly civil rights lawyer (Gloria Allred), a man who went to the moon (Buzz Aldrin), and qualified eye candy — because a party without beautiful women is a dud, Mr. Lozzi said.

"Monumental," the first proper show of Freud's paintings in New York since his death, is up now at Acquavella, which has assembled a baker's dozen of Freud's larger nudes from the 213s and 183s, depicting the outré performer Leigh Bowery, the Rubenesque model Sue Tilley, known as Big Sue, and other subjects of his obsessive gaze — though not, I'm sorry to say, pregnant Kate Moss!

Though the beats on All Kings Get Their Heads Chopped Off occasionally scan as something that might not be out of place on a mixtape from one of Atlanta's more outré post-trap denizens, he attacks them with the energy, skill, and lyrical flair to go bar for bar with the best rappers from all over the map, his southern drawl shining through no matter how hard he goes.

The books I remember reading fit mostly into four categories: books my parents loved — Nora Ephron's "Crazy Salad"; Calvin Trillin's "Alice, Let's Eat"; a quantity of Wodehouse (my father loved Wodehouse though my mother didn't); creepy books of all sorts, including "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and New England ghost stories; reference books, both ordinary (Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable) and outré (The People's Almanac, The Book of Lists).

From Beata Heuman's patisserie-inspired ceilings in homes throughout the city to Fran Hickman's tropical-night bespoke silk panels in the game room of the private members' Chess Club in Mayfair to Luke Edward Hall's playful evocations of Jean Cocteau's drawings on dishware to Martin Brudnizki's recent rococo transformation of Annabel's, the legendary Mayfair '60s-era disco-cum-supper club, their outré interiors are a celebratory rebuke to a dreary age.

On the Italian quartet's new album, Feast for Water (out April 6 via Aural Music), they've embraced those outré elements with a vengeance, dipping further into their well of influences, and doubling down on the jazz on songs like the understated, velvety "Leah," or the meandering, 70s-flecked "Tulsi"—which, in their hands, comes across as smooth but complex, like fine wine, with a dusky, lush tone that feels almost Satanic in its decadence.

"I cannot change the fundamentals," Mr. Mazzanti said, of suits and sports clothes that cautiously updated familiar staples by shrinking their Cheever-esque sack proportions to accommodate a generation of presumably skinny millennials (and that pointedly avoided anything as outré as the stuff Thom Browne produced when he briefly designed for the brand.) "I can only give a few new ideas," added Mr. Mazzanti, who formerly designed for Italian luxury labels like Loro Piana and Aspesi.

Though peers like Rihanna, Beyoncé and Adele have all worked with various designers at different points (Adele, for example, is being dressed by Burberry for her "25" world tour), I can't think of another who has gone from outré to establishment with quite the same level of commitment — and without using her appearance as a vehicle to introduce her own fashion brand, or at least a collaboration with a fashion brand, but rather as an instrument for other fashion brands.

The offerings include a Flaubert-alluding, black-and-white portrait of a young filmmaker (Jean-Paul Civeyrac's "A Paris Education," showing on Monday); a critique of sexism in the French corporate world (Tonie Marshall's "Number One," with Emmanuelle Devos competing to lead a utility company, screening on Saturday and March 17); multiple World War I movies (like "The Guardians," showing on March 16, from the "Of Gods and Men" director Xavier Beauvois); and even some experimental projects that the French might call outré.

If the lovely faces and bodies of many of his outré figures suggested exceptionalness, despite the general society's ignorance of or unacceptance of them, so too were his flowers so incredibly exotic or richly imbued with color (as a label at the Getty explained, most of the floral photos were first processed in black and white before some were later redeveloped in color) that they too —particularly works such as "Flower Arrangement" (1986), "Orchid" (1987), "Tulip" (1988), "Poppy" (1988) and "Parrot Tulips" 1988 — seem outside the realm of the usual flower paintings and photographs.
