This is a fancy dress theme with options. Our inspiration for today’s costume theme idea is…
Mens Punk Outfit
… On November 4th, 1914, Yes, we are a few days late (again) Vogue Magazine (founded 1892 and already well established as a trend-setting periodical) held its first fashion show in New York. Our thoughts therefore naturally turned to an event celebrating Fashion through the Ages. Obviously this is an opportunity to dress up in the costume style of whatever historic period you fancy. You might want to look to Ancient Times and wear one of our Roman | Egyptian Costumes or perhaps choose something Medieval, Tudor, Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian. Alternatively you might want to look at one of the decades of the twentieth century. Our most popular eras are the 1920s (20s flapper costumes), 1960s (Hippy costumes & Beatles Costumes), 70s (Glam Rock outfits & Abba Costumes), 80s (Michael Jackson outfits & Madonna Costumes) or why not just parody the whole concept of fashion and fashion shows by creating some wild outlandish looks of your own? Okay, we know Lady Gaga’s been doing that with great success already, but why should she have all the fun?
As you can see from the above, the choice of costumes is massive, in fact, it may be too large. You may decide to restrict the actual era as this will help to keep your guests focused. Too much choice can create its own problems. We find this in our fancy dress shop. We have over 6500 hire costumes and all the items you see on this website on display in our retail premises in Essex. You can understand that they are spoilt for choice. If you are ever in the Essex area, pop in and have a look yourself.
