Fancy dress?

[4AssedMonkey]

If you haven't seen I Love You Philip Morris, then do. Jim Carrey is excellent in it and as well as being a true story/serious film it contains some great, dark humour.

On to fancy dress. I'm not sure. I suggested months ago that we should all get formal dress on 1 day for a Glasto 40th Birthday party and the thread bombed. Then about a month later someone came up with Posh Friday (basically saying the same thing) and it got loads of support! I may get involved, but on reflection, taking a tuxedo, cummerbund, bow tie, shirt etc etc (including obligatory monocle and silk opera scarf) seems like a lot of extra kit to lug so I might blow it off.

Our group have got it down to 2 themes. Sports Stars of Movie Characters.

If it's sport stars then Ruud Gullit is on the agenda, if its movie stars then I'm in need on ideas?

yeah, i'm really only a comedy fan. saw yes man recently and wasn't too impressed. the kiwi stole the show in that.

The Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Man on the Moon and The Majestic show he's wasted as a gurner.

But what do I know? I can't even find Dumb and Dumber as funny as I know it should be.

Lets see if this works

aah, man on the moon is probably top 3 films for me. love it!

though that was 99 so i win and he was funny in that too.

[ampersand]

And The Truman Show was about 97... But I refuse to believe the late nineties were longer than about six weeks ago.

[TheBoyInTheBubble]

Posh Saturday could work too, pimping ourselves up for Snoop.

[FunkyDenz]

Snoop is playing the Friday, so Posh / Pimp would work well.

I fancy dressing up as a cow this year and chasing the milk float in the morning

[drunkendave]

As a group we dress up fancy every year on the Friday. This year we will be Funkin' 70's Pimps. In honor of the 40th anniversary and of course Snoop Dogg.

[Crouchie]

Anyone doing fancy dress this year? I can't make my mind up...

While clearing out the loft earlier this year I found my ex-wife's wedding dress. I'm 6'2", she was 5'2" and heavily pregnant. I plan on spending one day wearing a badly fitting wedding dress and combat boots.

I've never done the dress up thing for a festi before, but figured I'd have a day of it. Last year I met a woman who dressed up in a different costume every day and hadn't brought any other clothes. She made a good pirate

I always look at the person who is wearing a huge foam buzz lightyear suit on sunday night and think they look a little sad though. So I may yet relent and return to my usual wardrobe of a variety of interesting T-shirts.

Don't forget prcticality when choose your outfit.

Eg face paint will be a nightmare to get off, its not like at home when you can jump staight into a bath or shower.

Also all in ones are a pain, and anything too big will be a pain to carry as well

No way. I hate fancy dress at festivals. In fact it is one of my pet hates now. Every f**king festival has a fancy dress day. Oh how fracking novel. But sorry I choose not to be involved. What really bugs me is when people tell me I am boring for not joining in or wanting to wear make up and have my nails painted. These vacuous f**kers can only "be themselves" at a festival and need to dress up to be part of something. Back in the real world they would not give a person like me the time of day as I am too different and actually choose to do my own thing.

Anyway here's me trying to get into some poor girls dress I had just met.

I had said to her "I will be getting into your dress by the end of the weekend but I think she was expecting something different
