trashiness

Lacking any class

Trashiness is the quality of being cheap, vulgar, or lacking taste.

It suggests something gaudy, sensational, or low-class: the trashiness of reality TV, a certain trashiness to the décor.

The word carries judgment about taste and social standing, though some embrace trashiness as camp or deliberate aesthetic choice.
