i have a 21st to go to on sat where the theme is you have to dress up as a fictional character.
i was planning to go a jesus but i just found out that's been taken =( anyone know where to find a trench coat on short notice? i was thinking of the punisher. or maybe raoul duke (the guy j.depp plays in fear and loathing) though that hat might be even harder to find. any help with the above or any suggestions of other ideas would be awesome. |

Alright, time to be serious/help out.
Go as your favourite wrestler, easy costume (most of the time). Then when people ask who you are, do a suplex on them. Last costume party I went as the undertaker, got pissed and started putting people in leg locks. Best costume at the party btw was some dude dressed as Sub-Zero... too cool! |

Wear a suit and go as a successful version of yourself.
If you have a Trench coat, maybe grab a pair of Black Sunnies and go as Neo? I hate 'Theme Parties', my Little bro wants to have an 'Aussie' theme for his, So i'm going as Me, i'm Aussie. His friend is having an 80's this month too, so I'm going a Me again as I was born in the 80's. Loopholes rock. |

Actually on the 'social ladder' all these chumps having Dress-up parties were probably above me.
Just because you liked wearing your mum's dresses and shoes doesn't mean you have to make everyone play dress-ups. |

I quite enjoy THEME parties, as opposed to costume parties. Eg. For my last bday party at my place it was "black and white" theme. Easy for everyone and made the photos look f***ing awesome.
Tips for costume choices (when hiring): Consider how hot/cold you're going to be at the venue Don't wear anything with a mask - you'll take it off after 5 minutes when you get thirsty Don't have any cool accessories like a gun - some drunk fat chick will take it and you'll have to pay to replace it Wigs are always fun but they get hot and see my previous points... If you can grow a beard in a couple of days, definitely do it and work it into the costume (or shave if you have a beard) If you're single, wear something that isn't instantly recogniseable so girls ask you what you're wearing (then bend them over) If you have a girlfriend, wear something that isn't instantly recogniseable so girls ask you what you're wearing (then bend them over) |

sifn't gorilla suit. everyone loves the funny monkey! although they have a mask i didn't find drinking through it to be a problem till i was really tanked at which point who cares. the suit is nice n warm in winter, random women come up to run thier hands through your fur, it has gloves & booties so you can ride a motorcycle with it on for extra comedy effect... prolly not so good for a summer party tho ;p
