Picking out fancy dress costumes for a party is a lot of fun for everyone but with so many choices it can be difficult to make a decision. Some party hosts will make it easier by providing a theme for the celebration. This will at least give the guests a good place to start and help to narrow down the options.
A jungle party gives people the chance to imitate man or beast. Prints like leopard, zebra and giraffe can be used to create various Animal costumes. Add a tail, ears attached to a headband and body makeup to paint the face. Feather boas can be used to make fanciful bird outfits. A loincloth and matching headband makes the perfect Tarzan. Don khaki shorts, a camera vest with lots of pockets and a pith helmet and you are ready to go on safari.
An Angels and Demons party lets guests choose whether they want to be naughty or nice. Angels should wear a flowing white dress or robe with gold or silver metallic tinsel or trim. They will need wings which may be purchased or made and a halo adds the finishing touch. Demons and Devils favor red and black and there are dozens of variations to work with. Get a skin tight jumpsuit, a pointed tail and some red horns
Retro parties are big with guests and it is always easy to find clothing and fancy dress costumes at thrift stores and garage sales. Try on the groovy, hippie look of the 60s, the flashy disco duds of the 70s or the wild child rocker look of the 80s.
Inspiration for fancy dress costumes can come from almost anywhere. Characters from popular movies and television shows are always fun to imitate. Superheroes, musicians and aliens are also good ideas to consider. The possibilities are endless with just a little bit of creativity, so get in the spirit and let your imagination go wild.
