This costume was no trouble at all to come up with - I had most of it in my wardrobe and only needed to buy a few pearly accessories - unlike some other fancy dress costumes I've donned in the past:
From left to right:
- Little Miss Muffett with a halloween twist, for which I had to make a dress, and bonnet, and then hand sew 50 odd plastic spiders all over.
- Rubiks cube, for an 80s themed party - I made the skirt which was, by the way, solvable.
- Rudolph - for fake Christmas one year - my first attempt at making a dress. It was way too short.
- Sheep - for another Fake Christmas - this time, the nativity scene - it was slightly less labour intensive, since I just had to stick a photo of my head to some cotton wool and pipe cleaners.
- Lost - not for any particular reason - just a cold winters night when we thought it would be fun to get into some summer clothes and pretend we were in Lost
- Wizard of Oz inspired Witch - low maintenance, only back-combed hair and 'ruby' slippers required.
- Dangermouse - another 80s party, thought of and made on the day of the do - I won the fancy dress competition
- Rock chic - no party, just for fun, using the clothes I already had in my wardrobe
- Gangster - my first incarnation as a gangster, with a corset made out of a pair of pinstriped trousers.
