1 | In {{Media}} anytime a character does anything dramatic or badass it seems to be regarded as exponentially cooler if the Character has something hanging off their clothing while doing it, whether it be the ScarfOfAsskicking, BadassLongcoat, [[BadassCape A Cape]], a decoration on their hat, [[BadassInANiceSuit a Tie]], [[BlingOfWar general bling]] or anything else. It can also extend to things like hair. This is generally because it makes the Characters overall appearance much more visually engaging. |

3 | This goes straight into ImpossiblyCoolClothes and/or ImpracticallyFancyOutfit in many cases, with that hanging stuff, however extravagant, never getting in the way, encumbering the user, [[CombatPragmatist being exploited by enemies (or heroes, for that matter, when the enemy abuses this trope)]] and is always in the right position for maximum drama. Sometimes overlaps with RingAroundTheCollar. |
