historical fancy dress ideas
TRANSCRIPT
In this presentation, I’ll be taking a look at some of the
best historic figures you can dress up as.
#1 – MARILYN MONROE
Everyone remembers the scene from The Seven Year
Itch and for that reason, the white dress has become
one of the most popular dressing up outfits or all time.
#2 A KNIGHT
You can buy the accessories and outfits from
most fancy dress stores, online and high street.
#3 MOULIN ROUGE DANCER
Since the film Moulin Rouge came out, there’s been a
huge craze for the style of clothes when it comes to
dressing up parties.
#4 HENRY VIII
The Tudor king was known for his lavish dress
sense and beheading anybody that got on his
wrong side.
#5 WW2 FEMALE OFFICER
Those dark green jackets and pencil skirts look
brilliant on women of all sizes.
#5 WW2 FEMALE OFFICER
Why don’t you dress up in this costume, take the
mic and treat us to a bit of Vera Lynn?
#6 70’S MAN
It’s time to dig out the flares and platforms men! Just try
not to make anybody too dizzy with your shirt okay?
#7 60’S DANCER
People used to actually go out like this? If this is the
style that tickles your pickle, you can find these outfits in
most stores.
#8 ROBIN HOOD
There’s lots of rumours and speculation about the truth
in the stories about Robin Hood. Fancy dress wise, it’s
one of the best male costumes.
#9 CLEOPATRA
Heavily made up eyes, lots of gold paint and bangles
are just some of the things you’ll need to pull this off.
#10 GLADIATOR
This is a great costume idea if you’re going to a film
themed party or just a fancy dress party in general. Just
don’t forgot to buy some sandals to match the outfit.
#11 CAVEWOMAN
All you need to pull this outfit off is a dress that looks like
it’s made out of tiger skin or fur (fake of course).
#12 TOGA MAN
If you’re going to a college party or Greek themed event
the chances are there will be some people dressed up in
Togas.
#12 TOGA MAN
This is probably one of the cheapest costumes about as
all you need is an old white bedsheet.
From Gladiators to Robin Hood fancy dress, who
do you think your historical icon to dress up as
would be?
