Get with the scene for the original high school musical which is currently on tour throughout the UK.

Grease is starting off in Scotland before making its way across to Belfast and Derry then hitting several English dates including Nottingham and Bristol.

Party Britain’s best-selling Grease outfit is always the Pink Lady jacket. This looks especially fab if a team of you are wearing them. The 1950s zipper jacket has cuffs and waistband and is great teamed with a pink wig and bowling bag. For the whole ensemble put on a pair of tight black jeans and killer high heels. You’ll look ELECTRIFYIN’.

Meanwhile if your other half insists on coming with you then we’ve got just the thing for him too – a Danny T-Bird jacket. This cool leather look number is officially ‘Grease’ licensed (just like the pink lady jacket) and will whisk you back to the 1950s as quick as you say, in hand-jive fashion, ‘A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop A-wop-bam-boom!’

If the innocent Sandy is more your style Grease-wise then we have her costume too – white top with red collar, red skirt and Rydell High emblem. Possibly our favourite outfit though is the Grease Poodle Dress with its black sexy off-the-shoulder top, red scarf and puff out skirt with poodle motif. Actually, it’s all good!

Katy Perry fans will just love this Candy Queen fancy dress outfit. Indeed we love it ourselves – so bright and colourful is the entire outfit that we don’t need the sun to brighten up the office on a winter’s day. We just get Julie the receptionist to wear it!

Currently very controversial – since Ms Perry’s other half Russell Brand announced, over the festive period that he was divorcing her – the dress just makes you think of ice cream, cupcakes, coloured lollypop sticks and sugar coated sweets of all kinds.

Katy is known for her different hair colours and so we have an array of different coloured and rather bright wigs here all to order at the press of a mouse button such as lilac, green and pink – a different colour for every time you wear it in fact! We can reveal that Ms Perry herself is currently sporting blue tresses.

But what’s to become of Hollywood’s latest couple? No doubt MTV etc will keep us informed. In the meantime, it’s rather cold here in Britain so we’re also offering a pair of nice warm white tights in case you’re planning on wearing the Candy Queen fancy dress outfit to an outdoors event!

We’ve been going a bit wacky over Willy Wonka at Party Britain in recent weeks.

It must have been all those chocolates we’ve put away over the festive period. We’re glad we’ve been dreaming about the Roald Dahl story though as we love the new fancy dress costumes that have just come in to Party Britain HQ. And we’re sure you will too.

We’ve got quite a selection for you to choose from – which is great if you’re going as a couple or a crowd as then you can all go as a different Willy Wonka character or even the same character but in a different style.

For instance there’s a ’standard’ Oompa Loompa to a sexy version with cute white dungarees, white gloves and long socks (looks fabby with a green wig and dab of orange face paint!)

Or maybe you see yourself as more of a Willy Wonka himself? In that case we’ve a fantastic long dark jacket (with lots of detail) and black hat. Team this up with a cane and you’ll really look the part – with the added benefit of scaring lots of children in the process!

And you can impress everyone else at the party with your knowledge of this 1964 book which was made into a film seven years later. It was later remade in 2005 and where the character of Willy Wonka (played by Johnny Depp) comes across as more likeable and slightly less eccentric. The original Willy Wonka – and perhaps the one most of us remember – was played by Gene Wilder.

Create your own Dr Who episodes at home this Christmas thanks to a selection of the BBC 1 show’s finest characters – which we just happen to have here in stock at Party Britain.

For instance, why not dress up as one of the infamous Daleks? Then there’s the even scarier Cybermen and the good doctor himself. Children will love getting into character and you’ll see their imaginations go into overdrive. In fact you’re bound to exterminate any thoughts of boredom with the fancy dress outfits which come in both Dalek blue and Dalek brown.

The stunning three piece Cyberman costume includes a full silver metallic mask, top and trousers while Dr Who, based on our current ever popular Matt Smith, comes with bow tie, braces and even wig!

Then again, if your youngster is more of a Top Gear fan than Dr Who then he or she will love the children’s Stig fancy dress costume. The white jumpsuit is adorned with the correct badges and logos and the mask itself has a visor. At least with this Stig get up you’ll know exactly who’s under the mask.

The great thing about wearing fancy dress costumes is you can wear them all year round.

Even the Party Britain Fancy Dress Christmas range can be adapted to fit in with seasonal trends. Take the Christmas present outfit for instance. Now everyone likes a present, regardless of the time of year and this is a particularly attractive version with its shiny purple foil and silver ribbon. There’s even a wee gift tag which is a great way of identifying yourself if you don’t know that many folk at the party you’ve turned up at.

Slightly more occasion-orientated is the Christmas Cracker which is bedecked with holly. The helpful little gift tag on this natty number tells all who encounters it to ‘pull the cracker.’

Staying with the unisex theme, we love the fancy Christmas tree dress-up outfit. Comprising layers of green velvet with gold trimming and white decorations, this dress up costume is easy to wear and walk around in and doesn’t bleed pine needles. Save yourself the hassle of a real tree by getting your family and friends to pop on this costume and stand in the corner for a couple of hours at a time!

Have a wonderful Christmas and fantastic New Year.

From all at the Party Britain team.

Still on the Nativity theme, here at Party Britain we’ve set the bar high with these cool ‘we three kings’ fancy dress costumes.

Yes, Kings Balthasar, Melchior and Caspar could all be appearing in a living room or school hall near you this December.

First off, adorned in a long purple and black robe trimmed in gold, and yellow cape no child could be forgettable on stage – or off – in the King Balthasar number, especially when wearing the headpiece.

King Melchior is equally as regal with his red top embroidered in gold and beige waistcoat. There’s a metallic swirl running through the hat and costume (the latter having rouch details on the trouser cuffs).

King Caspar is rather resplendent in his long royal blue number with gold trim which is set off splendidly with matching sash and hat. For your sake as a parent, just make sure the regal theme doesn’t go to their young heads…

A rather more sombre fancy dress costume is Joseph’s brown robes with blue panel and beige headpiece. It’s not fancy, but it’s one of the lead costumes in this season’s school play blockbuster. And your little mischief maker will never again appear so angelic.

There’s a costume for Mary too but the only we really like is the little lamb/sheep outfit for toddlers aged three to five. It’s a small part but we’re sure will prove to be the starring role.

Fancy being Mark Darcy this Christmas? Well, you can with this very festive Crimbo sweater Party Britain has in stock today.

Rudolph’s face is on the front and can hardly be missed while there’s also the customary elbow pads. You could always go one better by adding a pair of geek specs complete with plaster. You might not feel very sexy, or get Bridget Jones interested, but you’ll give everyone else a laugh and Aunt Maud will just love the fact you’ve finally got taste at last.

Meanwhile, as you would expect, we’ve a whole host of Christmas accessories lined up to make sure your festive season is as merry and fun-filled as possible. For instance, to add extra authenticity to your Father Christmas fancy dress outfit, why not treat yourself to a Santa Belly? It’s elasticated so extremely comfortable to wear. And think of all the extra puddings you can put away undetected on the day!

But why should you have all the fun? What about your loyal hound who’s been with you from the start of your fancy dress craze? Don’t he deserve a Santa or a reindeer outfit too? Why there’s even dog-sized antlers they could be adorning.

Whatever you dress up at Christmas we’d love to see your photos here at Party Britain. In fact, you show us yours…

At Party Britain we’ve a tree-mendous way to get into the Christmas spirit at your office party this year.

Yes, you’ll already have competition already at the venue – from the Christmas tree – but we’re sure you’ll be able to shine anyhow with the deluxe unisex Christmas tree fancy dress outfit.

This super-touch velvet green outfit has gold trim and its own Christmas decorations. And of course, the hat will ensure your top billing as the evening’s star.

Don’t fancy going to the office night out as a tree? How about an impersonation of a Christmas pud then?

The lightweight one-piece fancy dress outfit and matching hat will make sure you get more than a bite of the action. Just try and make sure saucy pudding isn’t there too. For she’s sure to whet a few appetites in her shiny little puff skirt and white dress. Her matching green and red holly headband is cute while a pair of white stockings is definitely the icing on the er, pudding.

On the subject of Christmas puddings, we couldn’t resist showing of our knowledge here. For instance, did you know the Christmas pudding (also known as the plum pudding) is an English tradition? It was originally made five weeks before the Big Day and boiled in a cloth. Silver coins and charms such as thimbles, rings and tiny wishbones were put into the mixture to bring all sorts of luck to those fortunate enough to get a trinket in their serving.

However, we’re sure the wearer of the saucy pudding will herself be ‘charm’ personified.

Ladies who’re looking to dress to impress this Xmas will love the new Sexy Santa range we’ve just got in at Party Britain.

It’s never too early to get organised after all and best to get in early so we’ll still have your fancy dress costume size.

One of our own personal favourites this year is a short little velvet number with faux fur trim and matching Santa hat (of course) but more essentially, white faux fur stole (cute) ad white stripped stockings for that added wow factor. This looks fantastic with a pair of red high heels.

For those who don’t feel red is their colour we have the same outfit in green (brunettes will love this) and a striking blue colour.

But perhaps you’d prefer to be a Secret Santa? Well, we’ve got that covered too in the form of a red velour halter neck dress with white flurry trim and gorgeous little hooded cape to match.

To match there’s a pair of very sexy red stockings with white marabou trim and cute satin bows.

Those of you who really want to shine at the office Christmas do this year will love this red velvet corset type dress with large red satin bow. The red knee-length Santa boots are just the present you’ve been searching for.

But it’s not all about Santa. There’s also the saucy snowman fancy dress outfit to think about. Not only is this white puff dress with black/red scarf and brown hat hot (so to speak) but it’s also bound to raise a laugh. Complete the look with some white stockings and elbow length gloves and every male at the office party will think Xmas has come early.

Of course Christmas is also a time of angels and nativity plays. At Party Britain we’re gearing up for our own version of the annual seasonal ShowTime treat and we’ve a few costumes to get you going, too.

For instance the Sexy Fever angel costume with short white dress, wide drape sleeves and halo is sure to get a round of applause all round even before you’ve even uttered a word.

For those who prefer their angels a tad more modest there’s the deluxe Angel fancy dress costume. This floor-length gown also has drape sleeves but comes with gold embroidered detail. There’s a matching crown, angel wings with white marabou and gold tinsel trim to set it off nicely.

You’ll be needing a shepherd for your play too, naturally, and this is where the male fancy dress outfit of a brown and white robe and
matching headpiece does the job. Wear with a false beard and you’ll have everyone fooled.

And really, we’ve thought of everything at Party Britain. See our Mary fancy dress costume for example. This long white robe, light blue waist sash belt and dark blue hooded shawl was so realistic when Jan the receptionist put it on, everyone in accounts next door did a double take, not to mention poor Mr Johnston the caretaker who had to go and take a seat.

There’s a slightly less flamboyant version of the Mary costume with white rope belt. And for the gents well, they get to play Joseph in the long brown shepherd robe with a blue centre panel. The headpiece sets it off nicely.

If you are planning to partake of a nativity scene, we’d love to hear how it goes.
