"Death Is a Bitch"
Season 2, Episode 6

Death is constantly dropping in on the Griffins, and everytime he does, we're reminded that he pre-dated this street goth shit by almost a dozen years. In a full-length black robe, Death appears to be a fan of Thamanyah and other brands that deal in the macabre. Even if his day job is gruesome, at least he's spending his paychecks in the right places on dope gear.

"Ready, Willing, and Disabled"
Season 3, Episode 15

It turns out, Evil Monkey is evil for a reason. He tirelessly slaved away at his soul-deadening corporate job, only to walk in on his wife cheating on him with another monkey. If there's any consolation to the night that he turned evil, it's that he was wearing a green suit that is reminiscent of the Kenzo number Robert Pattinson was seen rocking last year. Very trendy, evil monkey. Very trendy, indeed.

"Brian Does Hollywood"
Season 3, Episode 2

Before Family Guys continues with Part Two of Brian pursuing his dream in Hollywood, the opening montage includes a few seconds of Peter and Cleveland tearing through the Miami port in a speedboat laced up in true Miami gear. Cleveland's pink floral shirt under the charcoal suit would probably get him streetstyled at Pitti Uomo, and Peter's white get-up is an advanced move that only true dons could pull off. The fact that they rock these clothes in a speeding cigarette boat and while jumping from an explosion only heightens the stylishness of the gear.

"A Picture is Worth A 1,000 Bucks"
Season 2, Episode 18

When the Griffins take a trip to New York City for Chris' art show, Calvin Klein spots Stewie and immediately casts him to be the face of his designer diaper campaign. Spoofing on Brooke Shields' scandalous "You wanna know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing" ad from 1981, Stewie coyly tells the camera, "I can go anywhere in my Calvin$." Stylish, but still gives us the creeps.

"Family Gay"
Season 7, Episode 8

In order to pay off some debts, Peter becomes the subject of a few medical examinations, including one that makes him become a gay man. In the eyes of creator Seth Macfarlane, this means that Peter becomes an avid shopper, and his steez meter increases accordingly. Slicked back hair, bold shirts, and striped pants are Peter's style statements of choice, and they definitely work for the big man.

"Road to Europe"
Season 3, Episode 20

As Kiss superfans, Peter and Lois attend the first night of Kiss-stock dressed like the band members. With a ton of leather, numerous metal studs, and Peter rocking a hybrid ponytail/top-knot, the couple are glam'd out rockers who would give Gene Simmons and crew a run for their money as best-dressed rock stars. Unfortunately, Lois doesn't know any of Kiss' lyrics, proving that she walks the walk, but can't talk the talk.

"Let's Go to the Hop"
Season 2, Episode 14

In order to convince high school kids that licking psychoactive toads is not cool, Peter goes undercover at Meg's high school as Lando Griffin. The coolest cat in town rocks classic '50s greaser style, with a black T-shirt, sturdy denim, and a pompadour that would make James Dean blush. In keeping with the look, Lando rocks a baby blue tux to the Winter Ball, complete with rippled sole oxfords. Unfortunately, Lando's dope style can't save him from driving his motorcycle off of Dead Man's Curve.

"Road to Rhode Island"
Season 2, Episode 13
"Peter Griffin, Father, Husband ... Brother?"
Season 3, Episode 14
"Boys Do Cry"
Season 5, Episode 15
"Go, Stewie, Go!"
Season 8, Episode 13

It's no secret: Stewie loves to cross-dress. Whether he's wearing a glamorous gown in a beauty pageant or dolled up for a song 'n dance number, Stewie isn't afraid to explore the styles of both genders. Pushing boundaries and accepted norms is highly unusual for a baby, but we applaud Stewie's efforts in challenging society's entrenched beliefs through his fashion choices.

"Brian Wallows and Peter's Swallows"
Season 3, Episode 17

A lot of guys have gone through the spontaneous decision to let their facial hair run wild, and Peter Griffin is no different. The only thing is, an endangered swallow inhabits his giant beard, and he has let the chirping bird live in his face. The Grizzly Adams inspired beard gives Peter a manlier look than normal, but this is a move that probably doesn't justify having to put up with birds using your facial follicles as a crib.

"Tales of a Third Grade Nothing"
Season 7, Episode 6

Brian tells Stewie that he made a trip to Barneys, because he heard that that's where famous people cop clothes. Cut to Yosemite Sam trying on skinny jeans for the first time in an attempt to get with the times. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be a fann, yelling, "Whoaa! These are the tightest, penis-compressin'est, sperm-killin'est, testicle grippin'est jeans I ever tried on." He's got a point, but slim-cut jeans doesn't mean your scro' has to feel like it's in a vice, nor do you have to blow your budget at Barneys.

"Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater"
Season 2, Episode 1

Peter Griffin is usually a crass man with simple tastes and a simple wardrobe. So when the Griffin family inherits Lois' wealthy aunt's fortune, he completely transforms his mannerisms and dress to fit in with the refined upper crust of Rhode Island. "Lord Griffin," as he calls himself, now sports formal dinner attire befitting of a gathering at Downton Abbey, complete with gloves, walking cane, tophat, and opera glasses.

"Meet the Quagmires"
Season 5, Episode 18

Ever wonder what it'd be like to be a party animal in 1984? Peter Griffin heads back in time to live it up as a single dude, which apparently entails dancing to the Beverly Hills Cop theme song while Cleveland dresses and dances like Michael Jackson. The all-red leather get-up is a far cry from Cleveland's basic casual look that he rocks today, but it certainly worked for him in the '80s. However, like his Jheri curl, this look is best left in the past.

"Wasted Talent"
Season 2, Episode 20

Lois discovers that Peter has the piano-playing skills of Mozart...when he's hammered. But even if you're falling-over drunk, a proper tuxedo will fix your appearance right up (see: James Bond). Even though Peter can barely distinguish between the keys, he plays well enough to bring win first place at the local recital competition for Lois. Does it matter that only one of his brain cells is left intact when he looks so sharp?

"Brian & Stewie"
Season 8, Episode 18

Stewie purchases a Thom Browne cardigan from the descigner's Fall 2009 collection. After dropping over $3,000 on the piece, he decides that he "loves it," but "it's too much" and he makes up his mind to return it. When he tells Brian how much he paid for it though, Brian calls him "a pretentious moron" for spending that much on a cardigan.

"North by North Quahog"
Season 4, Episode 1

Usually, Herbert the Pervert is rocking a cozyboy robe and walker—a uniform we can't wait to rock 60 years from now. However, Herbert knows that, when in Rome/an 8th grade dance, do as the locals do. So he shows up in a dope snapback, a super sick bomber, and perfectly cuffed denim that sit above immaculate cap-toed kicks. We're not sure if the youth at the dance listened to his advice to "stretch out those creamy hamstrings," but he may have won best-dressed for the night.
