In a world where the airplane is invented before the automobile goggles, scarfs and leather 'bomber' jackets will become common everyday wear. Imagine WW1 fighter aces everywhere.
upscale all-day-usage "cartoonish" or otherwise expressive fake teeth, to be worn over existing teeth or in lieu of dentures.
Randomly taking H's out of words has never been fashionable, for one.
Except amongst them Cockneys.......'oly 'ell!
Those stupid things that some tribe that I don't recall is doing when they cut their lower lip and/or ears and than put into them wooden round circles, and the older the tribe member is the bigger the piece of wood is. Someone can defend it with the argument "it is their culture" but the level of bizarre in this case is off the charts.
Burgundian court fashion of the 15th century
Among the most extravagant fashions was the court fashion at the Burgundian court under Philip the Good in the 15th century. It is only rivaled by the court of young Louis XIV.

flourescent glow-in-the-dark oversize plastic phalluses worn on the outside of women's clothing.

In my Newton's Radio I mention some alternative fashions,
Due to Joffrism (an alternative Darwinism) getting mixed up with nonconformist churches a strong movement for Truth in clothing arose, add in a revival of celts, Americans (OTL indians) and other noble savage sort of clothing and we get: Respectable religious nudism, banned cosmetics, Kilts, beech clouts
And naturally in time the reaction of the young (in this time line called the Fey Folk): Obvious cosmetics, high heels elaborate clothing, padded codpieces and bras etc.
