- 1815, Jane Austen, Emma, 第 II 卷, chapter 8:
  I believe I have been very rude; but really Miss Fairfax has done her hair in so odd a way—so very odd a way—that I cannot keep my eyes from her. I never saw any thing so outrée!—Those curls!—This must be a fancy of her own. I see nobody else looking like her!
  我觉得我已经很无礼了，但是说真的，费尔法克斯小姐的头发很奇怪，真的非常奇怪：我的眼神没法儿从她身上移开。我从来没有见过这么奇特的头发！——那一撮撮的卷发！——这一定是她自己精心做出来的。我从没见过像她这副样子的人！
- 1903, Samuel Butler, The Way of All Flesh, ch 50:
  He hated people who did not know where to stop. Ernest was always so outré and strange; there was never any knowing what he would do next, except that it would be something unusual and silly.
  他讨厌那些不知所措的人。欧内斯特总是显得那么离谱和奇怪；你永远不知道他下一步会做什么，只知道会是一些不寻常的蠢事。
非常偏離常規、傳統的

  To begin with, King Lear is the most unconventional, the most nearly hysterical, the most outré and outrageous play Shakespeare ever wrote.
