martinmac Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Ahh the memories of Blitz http://www.fashion-era.com/new_romantics1.htm Quote
spr1ngy Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 ME and my mate went to a recent 80s style fancy dress, we were a hit going as: Hoorah !! Quote
srobrien Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Go as Magnum PI, grow yourself a Tom Sellek tash, always goes down well with the ladies Quote
Randomfry Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 Hmm magnum p.i. was a thought, might struggle to grow a tash in 4 days tho. Hoff is an option. All 80's pop starts look proper gay ha ha. Think a trip round the charity shops on friday might be a good plan. Quote
nixy Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Top Gun 1986 Get a cheap T-shirt off ebay (i got my son one for xmas) It has Top gun on the front and Maverick on the back. Pair of Jeans or army combats and some aviator shades. Or aviators and a green flight suit if you can get something like that. Get one of your mates to go with you as iceman or goose but you have to sing 'you've lost that loving feeling' in the middle of the party! Quote
Randomfry Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 Top Gun was the original plan but my local fancy dress shop has rented out all its flight suits. T shirt and combats could work though. Quote

mbs Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Flash Gordon - a dirty white raincoat a pair of similarly grubby underpants with the label of a bottle of Gordons Gin stuck on the front, I will leave the rest to your imagination. Quote

mbs Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 i fear that is one you may have tried........... oh yes Quote
kObi Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Or why not sean conery, he looks good in anything? Quote

bronzee Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 What about Adam Ant or Guns 'n Roses, both easy to do, should be obvious who you are. http://www.sophiestar.com/fun/parties/80s/80sicons.htm Quote
