Why does 穿 look like this?
The character consists of 穴 (xuè - cave/hole) at the top and 牙 (yá - tooth/ivory) at the bottom. Imagine a tooth boring a hole through something! This visual nicely represents the dual meanings of 'boring through' and 'putting on' clothes (which is like pushing your limbs through holes).
