Here are a few of our picks of the day for the best in summery (revealing!) 80s fancy dress outfits!

Ladies Fancy Dress
Flash the flesh ladies! Summery 80s fancy dress is all about revealing those bits of you hidden away during the winter months. Show off your pins in a neon tutu 80s party girl outfit, or channel your inner 80s characters in a Baywatch swimsuit (for the brave!), Wonderwoman costume, as Dale from Flash Gordon or in the super cute Starburst Girl costume!

If you’re not spirited away by any of our 80s costumes, don’t forget to check out the 80s accessory section to help create your own!

Mens Fancy Dress
The 80s were a crazy decade for male clothing choices – we salute the 80s for making fancy dress what it is today! It’s time to bare all and indulge your secret fantasies to be a shirtless hair metal maniac (it’s all about the wig!), punk god, Village People Indian or pimped-out 80s rapper (gold lame all the way!)

We stock tons of 80s costumes and accessories for you to get your teeth into! Choose from our massive online selection to make your summer fancy dress event the best of the year (until Halloween, that is!)

There’s something about adult fancy dress events that brings out the silly side in all of us! Careful study on our part (throwing lots of fancy dress parties!) means we’ve glimpsed into the very heart and soul of all you costume enthusiasts, and we’ve noticed one of the funnest (if that’s not a real word then it darn well should be!) things you guys like to do when that invitation drops onto the doormat is let your fingers do the running to our online store in search of the silliest, most over the top men’s fancy dress costumes around!

Did we mention how popular women’s fancy dress is with guys? There’s something about being a dude and dressing as a dame for a fancy dress event that brings out the brilliant ridiculousness in guys!

Our “Little Britain” section features three of our favourite female men’s character fancy dress costumes – Vicky Pollard, Desiree and Bubbles. We dare even the manliest of men not to fall into character as the zip comes up on that Vicky Pollard tracksuit top – Yeah but no but yeah but no!!

Perhaps the best assortment of fun men’s fancy dress is gathered in the “Stag Costumes” area (what better place is there for a collection of hilarious and perhaps slightly rude costumes!). Choose from the 80s-inspired “Let’s Get Physical” leotard outfit, Miss World, cheerleaders, Hawaiian hula girl, nurse, fat stripper or –if you’re feeling a little cheeky – pregnant nun!

Happy hunting ladies/men!

A fancy dress party can be fantastic, but the build-up can often be stressful. The thought of having to come up with an appropriate costume can leave many people cold, wondering what they should go for and floundering with the amount of choice on offer. Of course, if you’ve got a theme to stick to or a set idea of what works for you then great, but if not, here are a few of the most popular men’s fancy dress costume ideas to help you out.

•    Film stars. Got a favourite film? Great, then channel that idea into your next costume. You could step into the shoes of Tom Cruise in Top Gun (always a hit with the ladies), or go for something completely off the wall – Beetlejuice, Grease or even Pirates of the Caribbean could all be used to your advantage.
•    Uniform. What girl doesn’t love a guy in uniform? Give them what they want by opting for police, fireman, solider, doctor or sailor outfits and you’ll easily be hitting the right notes.

•    Music icons. Bring out your inner Rock God by channelling your favourite music star, and whether you choose someone past or present you’ll have no problem making the right impression.
•    Step back in time. You might want to go for 70s or 80s fancy dress, for example, or go even further back and step into the shoes of a famous historical character with Roman, Egyptian and medieval outfits all being popular choices.

These are just a few options to whet your appetite, but the list really is endless. You could go for something truly fun or try to emulate someone that you admire, and if you choose wisely you’ll easily make the right impression at that party.

Although we can’t imagine how it happened, some of you have yet to attend your very first fancy dress event! Feeling a little anxious about your costume choice? Don’t worry, we’ve got heaps of options that even the most phobic of fashion grumps can’t argue with!

Men’s Fancy Dress

Going for something classic (that you can dress down if needs be!) like our best selling Police Costume (or maybe Sexy Cop Costume?) means you won’t have to worry about looking too nuts travelling on the number twenty-nine to your event. Although, we reckon something a little more off-the-wall (but still easily concealed beneath a coat) like the Tattooed Convict Prisoner Costume might be more fun (and might bring out your bad boy!)

If you’re forced into a corner by a 70’s or 80’s theme party, we’re sorry guys but you’re just going to have to pull out all the 70’s and 80s fancy dress stops – there is no dowdy way to pull them off!

Women’s Fancy Dress

For loads of our female customers, a fancy dress event is the perfect excuse to look damn sexy in outfits that would make your granny blush! But not everyone is comfortable flashing the flesh, so here are a few subtle and creative alternatives. The 1920s Roaring Red Flapper Costume covers modesty without being bulky – and how sexy are flapper girls?! And if you fancy playing the ultimate good girl, the Sandy Dress Costume will have you going like greased lightening!

“I love a man in uniform” is one of those cliche phrases that sound a bit silly outside of black and white classic movies. Katherine Hepburn could get away with it but the women of today find it a little harder. Still, that doesn’t mean it’s not true. In fact, it’s such a well-known saying exactly because it is very true indeed. Many women really do love a man in uniform.

The next time you’re selecting Halloween costumes, remember that. You can capitalise on it with a dignified yet sexy uniform outfit. You can be a fireman, a police officer, a pilot, a doctor or a soldier. All of those are, in their own ways, sexy professions and if you buy from us they certainly make alluring fancy dress outfits.

They’re also relatively low key – great choices for those who’d rather not dress up as Elvis complete with spectacular quiff wig, spangled jumpsuit and sideburns. If you want to look good without going overboard, uniform costumes are a great place to start looking. You don’t have to hide yourself away under a white sheet and pretend to be a ghost!

There are also women’s fancy dress uniforms. These are not only some of the sexiest choices but also the most classic and most instantly recognisable – the saucy French maid, the short-skirted nurse, the women’s army and sailor outfits. Men love a woman in uniform just as much as girls love their firemen and jet fighters so these are sure to make an impact at any costume party.

It seems that wherever you look on a Friday and Saturday night you see groups of girls making their way around the local bars in ladies fancy dress costumes. Although the girls think they have the monopoly on this flamboyant attention seeking strategy, the lads are quickly starting to catch on. Male groups have less options than the ladies when it comes to fancy dress, but there are still some men’s fancy dress outfits available that are guaranteed to draw the limelight away from the girls and steal their thunder.

Star Wars

There are two main choices when you go for group star wars costumes; storm troopers or Jedis. There is no doubt that a small platoon of stormtroopers dressed head to toe in white armour will get no end of admiring looks as you walk down the high street to your local Wetherspoons. However, you will need to take off your helmets every time you want a drink. Being dressed as Jedis however means hours of endless fun poking unsuspecting ladies with your light sabres and trying to fool bartenders with your Jedi mind tricks. Whichever outfit you choose, the Force will be with you!

Sailors

There are few outfits which suggest roguish charm and manly machismo in equal measure as sailor costumes. Groups of lads dressed as sailors are sure to receive a warm welcome from ladies everywhere, because remember; all the nice girls love a sailor! Be sure to hold on to your hat, though.

Fancy dress costumes for Seventies Theme nights and parties are perennially popular, and at Fancy Dress Ball, we have a great selection of 70s outfits to suit everyone.

You might occasionally like playing the clown, and fancy dress parties can give you the perfect chance to do this. By donning clown-themed fancy dress costumes, you have the perfect excuse to act the fool.

Outfits like this that are characterised by overdone makeup, crazy hair styles, big shoes, colourful garments and red noses developed so that entertainers of this kind could project their humour to very large audiences.
