I was Boy George for an 80s party once.

Well stick with the 80's slasher theme go for Michael Myers/Freddy or Jason Vorhees.Now i always think the women should go as Elvira.

80'sRocked.. that is is both awesome and tragic at the same time!
"Wonder Twins powers activate!"

Here are a few ideas...
80's Girl:
Joan Jett
Of course with the release of the movie "The Runaways" you might see a few clones at the party.. like Pat Benatar in the 80's.
I don't know who that chick is on the poster, but dig on her threads! btw, I'm totally going for that Randy look this Halloween..

Valley i'm loving your mens ideas better then the ladies....(i've been an 80's rocker chick/madonna girl more then I can count).....will you think of some female 80's movie characters I need ideas!! or i'm going in drag.

How about:
Andy from The Goonies
Tennis outfit, Letter sweater, and Troy's Bucket

liking it so far....Andy was the boys dream girl then haha.....more more!!
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
you said you liked your nerds:
Rose from The Last American Virgin
Finding those glasses could be a challenge!

Chris Parker
Awesome coat and scarf, but having three kids tag-a-long with you to a frat party could be a bummer. But as you know you can borrow my Thor helmet anytime!
This one is awesome Valley! Chris Parker!! a strong 80's woman character....do you think people would know who I am? a coat the gloves and that scarf maybe a curly wig? lol
been thinking about going as Maddie Hayes shoulder pads and a cool 80's suit....haha no one would know who I was??!! Then i'd have to explain it every time
Amaranth getting ideas? Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Well.. Chris Parker won't be easy without Brad, Daryl, and Sara, but it you carried around a Thor helmet and a rollerskate it might just work..
wait.. a copy of the March 1987 issue of Playboy would be perfect!
I loved "Moonlighting", but without David with you.. no way they will get it.

How about as Inspector Gadget, if a reasonable amount of gadgets could be located and mounted about the person safely? I myself have often considered going as the Inspector some day.

I'm going to a Halloween party on Saturday with my wife and some friends (bless me mudder and fadder for babysittin' for the night). Last year I went as Rowdy Rody Piper of WWF fame and got some pretty positive feedback. This year, looks like a sterotypical 80's dude....got a "big hair" wig (spikey like Joan Jett's), add a head band, my wife is making me a t-sirt with 80's iron ons (any ideas re what to put on the shirt...PacMan? Rubik's Cube? Atari? Movie?) Also got a big strap for my beloved ghetto blaster, which I will carry around my shoulders. Anything else I can add? Ghetto blaster is functional so I'll likely have a few 80's tapes to play bits of songs occasionally...Van Halen - Jump, Corey Hart - Sunglasses at Night, etc. I'm a bit hesitant to bring my blaster as beer and ghetto blasters don't mix....but I think it will make the costume!
Posted by Pittsburghgirl (Member # 7514) on :
kevdug, my husband still has his "Where's the Beef" t-shirt from the 80's- maybe you could put that on your shirt, lol! The ghetto blaster should be a hit. I just got a gift catalog in the mail yesterday from JC Penney, and they are selling an "80's style boom box"!

or you could dress up for the occasion? Posted by Veronica Sawyer (Member # 2221) on :
I think I am going to be Allison from The Breakfast Club? Not completely sure yet!
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Not completely sure if that is real or fake dandruff?
Should be a fun costume Veronica!
