No - unless it was something that could be easily remedied. I travel a lot so I've always got an emergency sewing/mending kit on me. I've given other ladies safety pins or use of needle and thread at formal events.
I carry those Tide to go stain eraser. (the kind you squeeze to break open and blot on stains, not the pen thingy) A couple of times I've passed those off to another lady that I didn't know well. Both times we were at formal military events in ballgowns.
I had someone give me a t-shirt once. 20 mins into a six hours flight - my three year old threw up all over me. A very kind woman gave me the souvenir shirt she had in her carry-on.

That's the thing. There's a difference in what you're describing, doing it out of kindness, which is commendable, and doing it to be cruel.
It was hard to tell from the OP's title what his point was going to be. The way he worded it, no, I would not tell a stranger their clothing was "a mess." What good would that do? Why would I lob a general insult at a person I don't know who may or may not be able to do anything about it?
I would only approach a stranger if I saw a problem they seemed to be unaware of and if it could be easily remedied.
I have never had anyone say this to me, and I most certainly would never say something like this to someone else.
But they are teenagers...children will be children and they will say and do dumb things(that they would likely never do once they become mature adults)...so take it with a grain of salt and don't let it bother you. Their rudeness and lack of manners is a sign of their immaturity.
I think this may be the real problem that needs addressing.
Now that's funny right there
