Fancy DressTwo words that fill me with dread. Fancy Dress. Some people really get off on this - last party I went to that involved dressing up, one bloke came in a sort of fetish-nazi outfit, all tight black pvc, whips and jackboots.* Which would have been OK but it was a Eurovision party, and he'd come as Austria.
What's the worst costume you've encountered? Or worn? Or been made to wear...
*and no, it wasn't one of them royals

F*ck Da PoliceIt was my final year of Primary School (1984). Every year since I had moved to that school in 1978 I had witnessed the top year get tooled up in fancy dress and perform a song for the whole school at the final assembly of term.
This years theme was cops and robbers. I had an elaborate costume planned, with a stripey jersey, bandit mask and bag with "Swag" on it.
Only trouble was, on the day, the 11 year old Captain left the house in the morning forgetting to take his costume with him, and suffered only the mildest of heart attacks when he remembered with 10 minutes to go that he needed a costume.
Thinking quickly I put my blue waterproof overjacket on and went out into the assembly with my peers as an "Undercover Cop".
........
I was standing next to the Village bobby's kid who was decked out from top to tail in regulation police gear, the cnut. Afterwards my Mum who had been watching from the audience asked me why I hadn't worn my costume.
