A tacky tourist is a person who dresses in a stereotypical and exaggerated way that is associated with tourists. They often wear bright and loud clothing, such as Hawaiian shirts, shorts, and flip-flops, and carry accessories like fanny packs, cameras, and oversized hats. Tacky tourist costumes are popular for Halloween, themed parties, or school spirit days, and can be made by adding tourist accessories to base layers and practicing silly tourist behaviors. However, it is important to avoid mocking accents, stigmatizing marginalized groups, or wearing a fat suit/padding to show respect towards others.
