I am off to my brother's stag do this weekend and for some silly reason it is 1980s fancy dress. I hate the whole dressing up thing so what can I wear that makes it look like I am taking part but won't look like a total berk?

Freddie Mercury? Easy to do, white pants, vets top, yellow Jacket, stick on mussie (unless you have your own!).

Or revisit the A-team, topical as the new remake is out soon? Combat pants, leather jacket, baseball cap, voila, Howling mad Murdoch!

Karate Kid – Old Judo suit, head band, a sponge, some chopticks. Plenty of banter all night.

And remember the person that always looks the biggest idiot when everyone is in fancy dress is the person that has tried to not look like a berk.
