Props & Frocks -THE fancy dress experts

With just under a week to go to this year’s Children in Need, this weekend might be a good time to finalise your fundraising arrangements (or, if you are caught up with the mood of the moment, quickly work up some fundraising ideas to contribute to this worth cause). Props & Frocks supports many charities and is happy to offer a 10% discount code for any of you participating in this year’s events. Just drop us an email and we will get back to you with the relevant discount code that you can use on any of our fancy dress costumes and costume accessories

In the meantime, today we say Happy Birthday to Hugh Bonneville. He is one of those actors of great versatility, who crops up in all manner of roles. He is currently probably best known for being the Earl of Grantham in Downton Abbey, and as Ian Fletcher, the head of the Games Organising Committee in the Olympics spoof ‘Twenty-Twelve’. Following our comments earlier this week, it is probably true to say that TV programmes do not create as much demand for costumes as movies, but with the enthusiasm for the Downton programme (and similar ‘historical’ dramas) we do tend to notice an upturn in interest in the periods portrayed. Strangely, with the possible exception of the Victorians, few people seem interested in portraying the lower and servant classes of the relevant eras, even if the demand for French Maid outfits seems constant, come what may!

Prior to December, one of November’s seasonal rituals is the fundraising activity known as BBC’s Children in Need. In case you have missed the memo (or the BBC adverts), this year it is being held on Friday November 16th.  Here at Props & Frocks we regularly receive bizarre requests, and none more so when people need fun costumes and/or accessories for charity fundraising. We are keen to support both local and national charity events, but as we have mentioned on previous occasions, at the end of the day we are in business (and wish to remain so) so we do not usually offer costumes for free, no matter how good the cause. That said, we are always happy to work on mutually satisfactory arrangements – come and discuss your plans, the earlier the better.

We know that when it comes to routes to good costuming, we like to think that the only way is us here in Essex. Unfortunately someone’s already nicked that title for something else (although we are working on our own tele-visual riposte). In the meantime something that turned up in a recent episode of TOWIE has raised some interest: This is the animal-themed party featuring a selection of interesting face/body-painting creations. Nothing too full-on, just some minimalist designs to complement the animal print outfits (most of them normal street/club separates) being worn.

Now it would be naïve to think that the painted designs were the work of the Bright Young Things themselves – so far we know of about five face-paint artists who claim to have been involved – but what the episode did highlight was the simplicity with you can create impressive results using the new generation of face-paint stencils. These have been widely used by professional body-paint artists for years to get uniformity of repeat designs such as scales or big-cat markings, and to cover a large skin area quickly using an air-brush, but as always, a good idea has ‘trickled down’ to become available for the wider face-paint market. Take a look at our wide range of face paints to use for a wide range of fancy dress outfits.

But, whether you are going the whole hog today and showing your spots (or stripes or whatever), or just adopting a minimalist approach, we hope you have fun and raise lots of money for this worthy cause.
