That time of year again...80s fancy dress advice/suggestions!

Recommended Posts

Helllo alll! So it seems rather last minute, when I planned to do nothing but stay in on New Year's eve, I have found a party to attend. However, it is 80s themed, and so...I need 80s ideas! I'm welcoming any and all suggestions, as I'm hoping to maybe try something still 80s but a little different to everyone else's standard(which at the moment from my friends, seems to be neon/neon ravers). I reckon that'll be fairly standard too, so I'd like to try and be something a little bit different(though also rather budget). I'm even accepting hairstyle/haircut suggestions, as my hair is getting rather long and needs a trim anyway! What do you guys reckon I'll be able to pull off, 80s wise? What have you tried in the past?

Dungarees and white t-shirt (or topless), red neckerchief, beret.

My friend had an 80s fancy dress for her 21st a few years ago:

 

This was my favourite:

Yeah, was gonna say, 70s is kinda....totally not 80s!

 

Thanks for the suggestions guys, as much as I love the pac-man dress @Emma, I think I'd have a hard time pulling it off at a new years eve party with people I don't know very well :p

@EEVILMURRAY, one day, but not this day! How much did get your ghostbusters outfit for?

@MoogleViper, I was considering the Miami Vice look, as I could probably pull something like that off with bits I have already.
