Help With What to Wear to a Costume or Themed Party

[susie_bubble]

A vintage Halston gown? If you can find one in a day.....
When I think 70's...I think silk jersey halter neck dresses or jumpsuits. Jerry Hall in Studio 54 type thing.

can I come with you?

I'll wear roller boots and serve the martini.....

ok seriously....starting point.....expect the unexpected. ......something ysl-ish? everyone will be doing the Halston look will they not?

Let me have a look at the YSL thread

 

[Meg]

agree with the vintage halston....softie, would send you mine but won't reach you in time. It needs wearing!! Anyway, agree with the sexy jersey....big curls.....SEX!

oh right...
i have a 70's blk halston halter dress...
but it's kind of small...
i will try it on and see if it's ok...
good idea susie...
i totally forgot about that......

helena...
i have helmut lang tux pants...
i guess i could do that with pointy louboutin pumps and maybe this prada shirt?...

it's really shiny satin...though the pic is really grainy...

 

[softgrey]

can I come with you?

I'll wear roller boots and serve the martini.....

absolutely...
i;d PAY to see that...
...


will you wear satin gym shorts as well...

 

[softgrey]

automne/hiver '73 no. 59. Thats what i'd do......I think.Complete with a hat type thing like that.

 

[Kimkhuu]

^^ YES that top is great!

I wanna come too!!!!! Can you bring me with you !! PLEASE?!!

 

[softgrey]

like this...

 

[Kimkhuu]

^ that's def sexy 70s, love the black tights, you're gonna rock the outfit... and what about the shoes....!? what shoes did you choose for your outfit?!

 

[Meg]

SOFTIE! Our shoes!! at first i thought the buttons a bit victorian but now I definately see the ossie clark!!

 

[softgrey]

ok...everyone who wants to come pick out their outfits......

meg- i think you're all set with your halston...

...

 

[helena]

i'm with the helmut lang tux trousers and the prada top....or with no top and just a tux jacket and a bra? very Charlotte Rampling.

 

[softgrey]

i know...
the buttons, the bows...
that outfit is a bit neo goth actually...
but it seems that i have been doing neo goth for some time now actually....
it's just finally reaching the mainstream......

i'm thinking of doing these shoes instead actually...
to make it more 'dicso-y'...

helena...i know it's a 70's ysl collection...
bt the inspirations seems more 30's...which has never been a look that i favour...
but i think you would look gorgeous in it...
so maybe you can wear that once you are done serving martinis...
......

 

[softgrey]

i think i have to wear no hose too...
no one wore hose back then...

or i could wear these which are vintage and really vintage...
but a bit fragile after being caught in the rain......
i'm afraid if i try to dance...the straps might snap......

 

[softgrey]

also...
david bowie and iman will be there...
and lenny kravitz and diddy...

so it's kind of rock n roll meets disco meets glam...
if that makes sense...

 

[susie_bubble]

I was thinking you could go for the glam rock look as an alternative to the disco thing. But after seeing you in the black top and slinky jersey skirt, I say D I S C O!
The vintage red shoes are perfect! Very authentic!

 

[softgrey]

i'm with the helmut lang tux trousers and the prada top....or with no top and just a tux jacket and a bra? very Charlotte Rampling.

...ha!!...
very amusing...
i might have actually done that in my younger days dear...

i've done it all at this point...

 

[softgrey]

here are some options with the hl tux pants....
thoughts?!?...

 

[Kimkhuu]

Soft, I think the first top in black is definitely my fave especially with the black pants..... And if you go with the skirt, I think it would look even better without tights and with the pumps in the picture with the skirt.... What a lovely outfit...

So I am coming too right.... ......!?
