OK, so the wife and I have been invited to a fancy dress party.

I hate fancy dress and have so far managed to avoid going to one. Ever.

Anyway, these are good friends, so I going to bight the bullet and go, so now I need some ideas.

It needs to be:

Easy, does not come with some naff catch phrase, not involve any sort of body hair, or wigs……

No mullets either.

Ideas?

Best to avoid being, Jimmy saville, rolf harris, ken barlow, and dave lee travis then all big in the 70,s and 80,s.

What about you being arthur Scargill and the wife Mrs thatcher.

not involve any sort of body hair, or wigs……

Duncan Goodhew
just shave your head and get a whole body wax and go to the party in nothing more than a pair of skimpy speedos and a verruca sock.

Thats you’re wife’s outfit sorted. Not sure who you should dress up as though.

Snake Plissken

Bananaman

how do you know?

Han Solo and Princess Leia (slave girl outfit of course)

Karate suit?
Doctors outfit

Go as Walter White. Looks almost like normal clothes.

for christ’s sake Jamie, have you been watching my deliveries? That’s the outfit I was going to wear to my next event.

I know it’s normal to not even read the OP, but skipping the title is a new one 8)

Well, apart from not wanting to need body hair in the pursuit of the look, I reckon Magnum PI is the one…

oops. 😉

Easy one!

If you did dress as Magnum PI your missus could go as Jessica Fletcher.

Easy

Carl Mccoy. You will need a hat and lots of flour.

Make some undies out of sandpaper and go as Dick Emery 😆

Trigger!

Roger Moore, Bond Safari suit

lazy fancy dress.
very dark sungalsses for you & wig for the missus =instant Peters& Lee.

The tron one is ace btw.

Smiley face t-shirt, drop an E and go as an eighties raver, at least it’ll loosen you up enough to enjoy yourself 🙂

I was press-ganged into going to a 70’s fancy dress party a few months ago. Everyone was done up in flares and floppy hats which seemed more 60’s to me.

Bearing in mind that from my POV the 70’s = punk I bought a “Never Mind the Bollocks, here’s the Sex Pistols” t-shirt and snarled at everyone in best Sid manner.

Wow.

OK, I am loving the tron idea! Or maybe A-Team. Not sure if I could pull of the slave girl look though. Wife would make a good Han Solo though.

PUNK! Of course!

Bermuda shorts and a big white frankie says RELAX t-shirt. A jacket with big shoulder pads, or a denim jumpsuit for the missus – easy.
