Decade Themed Parties Are the New Big Trend for Fancy Dress

All Fancy Dress

Wickford, UK (PRWEB UK) 15 April 2011

The UK’s leading online fancy dress retailer, All Fancy Dress has seen an incredible increase in interest for their ’50s, ’60s, ’70s and ’80s costumes, which could be sparked by recent fashion trends.

The ’70s inspired vintage look has been steadily incorporated into the catwalk trends and high street stores, which could be the reason behind the surge in these costumes. Customers of all ages have turned to the past for their fashion inspiration. Perhaps they want to relive their childhood memories or discover something new and exciting?

The biggest decade costumes that have made an impact recently are ladies ’70s costumes. Women across the UK have been dressing up as disco divas and ABBA disco queens. For their counterparts, men’s ’80s costumes have been flying off the shelves, with many enjoying the benefits of becoming Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury and Top Gun for the night.

Estimates show that the surge in decade costume sales is set to stay at a high throughout the summer season, due to the continuous change in fancy dress and fashion trends. New trend estimations for fancy dress are yet to be released.

Matt Foden of All Fancy Dress commented: “It seems that fashion trends eventually come around full circle, and it’s great to see that the current trend towards the ’70s look is being seen in Fancy Dress as well. There is also a massive appetite for the ’80s amongst 30 and 40-somethings looking to recreate the nostalgia of their youth. I’m still a big fan of Bananaman myself!”

Dania Beach, FL (PRWEB) April 22, 2008

From Renaissance Fair clothing and costumes to fun Cinco de Mayo costumes, Annie’s Costumes is the one-stop shop for event costumes and accessories.

As the weather warms in April, adults and children head outdoors and the Spring and Summer festival circuit often kicks off with local Renaissance Fairs. Renaissance fairs are set during the late Elizabethan period and typically include music and theater events as well as period food and crafts. Jugglers, magicians, musicians and other entertainers perform throughout the festivals all wearing Renaissance clothing and medieval costumes.

Fairgoers also dress up in the themed outfits, and costumes often include Maid Marian Costumes, Princess Bride Costumes, Tavern Wench and Peasant Lady Costumes, Merlin, Sir Lancelot, Medieval Knight Costumes and more.

Typical costumes include sombreros and ponchos, but fun Cinco de May costumes such as fruit hats and Mariachi costumes are always party pleasers.

Moon Costumes Launches Line of Anime and Cosplay Costumes

Durham, NC (PRWEB) February 13, 2007

Moon Costumes, a prominent online Halloween Costume retailer, announced today that it will begin selling Anime and Cosplay costumes. “Today’s kids are getting tired of the same costumes year after year,” says CEO Erik Aronesty. “I’m predicting that 2007 is going to be the year that Cosplay goes mainstream.”

Cosplay is a term used to describe the year-round practice of dressing up as a favorite character from a comic book, movie or video game. It is very popular in Japan, and is catching on in the U.S. and in Europe.

Moon Costumes has added 112 costumes from popular anime and manga titles. “These costumes are special because they’re different from the usual. Some people are buying them even if they’ve never even heard of the character or the movie before,” says Erik.

The new selection includes costumes from Naruto, Bleach, Sailor Moon, Full Metal Alchemist, Trigun, Chobits and more. These deluxe costume sets include the typical jackets, robes, pants, skirts as well as bundled accessories such as headbands, sandals, sashes, wallets and more.

“Even with a limited release, we expect Cosplay to grow to 20% of our business within the next year,” Aronesty said.

Customers can, of course, still browse and purchase from Moon Costumes growing selection of more than 10000 more traditional costumes and accessories, at deeply discounted prices.

Halloween Mania 2004 Has Begun

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 8, 2004

“Halloween costume party mania will reach an all-time high in 2004,” says Charlie Cristo of Costume-Party-Shop.com . This year Halloween falls on a Sunday, leaving an entire weekend open to attend and host Halloween costume parties. “Many of our customers are clubs, bars and restaurants in the New York metropolitan area – people know Halloween is extended a few days this year and demand for Halloween costumes has already been through the roof.”

Hip and festive party-goers know that on Halloween weekend, just about every local bar and nightclub will have a Halloween party with contests and prizes for the best costumes. With the ever-growing popularity of home entertaining (thanks to Martha Stewart), thousands of people will be hosting their own Halloween fetes. Halloween costume parades in schools and communities will be a draw to both children and adults all throughout Halloween weekend.

Last year, the hottest Halloween costumes had a “couple theme” and Cristo expects this trend to continue. “So many manufacturers have expanded their selections for couples this year and we expect the newest “couple-themed” costumes to be our top sellers.”

Costume-Party-Shop.com is poised and ready to take a huge chunk of the Halloween market share this year. “We have an incredible variety of adult and children’s Halloween costumes and accessories, including masks, hats and wigs in an array of sizes at economical prices,” says Cristo, adding that “… we’ve had to add staff in order to handle the sheer volume of business this year, and it’s only August.”
