Two 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

A friend of mine decided to be elaborate one Halloween and dressed up as his battered inner child. He did a good job of the battered part, covered with artfully applied fake blood, bruises and scars, but to signify the inner child part he wore a dinosaur costume he first wore when he was nine. It didn't quite fit anymore and was artfully ripped here and there so he could spill out, which was a nice addition to the battered look. But the crotchal area remained intact... and displayed the worst case of faded green felty-fabric male-pattern camel toe ever. It was truly nauseating to behold, mostly because it looked so horribly painful. Honestly, you couldn't look at it without curling up in empathy. He didn't seem too bothered though, and happily wandered about the party until the screams of protest finally overwhelmed and he was forced to change.
