Elf Costumes Now Most Popular Outfits At Christmas According To All Fancy Dress











Elf Costume


Wickford, UK (PRWEB UK) 16 December 2011

According to leading costume retailer All Fancy Dress, sales of elf costumes have overtaken Santa costumes for the first time, making them now the most popular Christmas category. Traditionally, sales of Father Christmas costumes, along with the equivalent ‘Mrs Santa Outfits,’ have accounted for the highest percentage of Christmas sales. However 2011 has seen a marked change in buyer behaviour with a far greater number of both elf and novelty costumes ‘flying out the door’.

According to Matt Foden of All Fancy Dress, ‘Customers are looking for something a little different for Christmas nowadays. And whilst Father Christmas costumes are still popular, sales of both elf fancy dress costumes and novelty costumes have proved incredibly popular this year. We have also noticed that more and more customers are deciding to hold fancy dress themed parties in the run up to the festive period.’

The rise in popularity of elf costume may have been driven, at least in part, by the popularity of cult films such as ‘Elf’ starring the multi-talented Will Ferrell. According to Matt Foden, ‘Many customers seem to identify with the ‘naughty’ and ‘impish’ qualities of the traditional Christmas elf, and this seems to form much of the appeal of these costumes. I also think it’s hard to take yourself too seriously when you are wearing a green and red elf suit, and a pair of oversized elf shoes!’

Whatever the reasons behind this new demand for elf costumes, it appears that Santa now has a firm rival in the Christmas popularity stakes.

Original Ghostbusters Film Digitally Re-Mastered for This Year’s Halloween Festivities, According to Scifimafia.com












Wickford, UK (PRWEB UK) 18 October 2011

It’s that time of the year again, but movie lovers can be certain they won’t have to be busting any ghosts at Halloween this year! According to website scifimafia.com*, The 80’s cult classic, Ghostbusters, is set to make a stunning return to the world’s cinema screens this month in an all-new digital cinema presentation.

Directed by Ivan Reitman, with a star-studded cast including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Sigourney Weaver, the film focuses on a trio of university parapsychologists in New York City, who lose their research grant and decide to start their very own business, Ghostbusters.

The first release of Ghostbusters was way back in 1984 and 27 years on this much-loved sci-fi comedy is sure to provide just as much entertainment. Fans of the original will be intrigued to see just how imaginative the updated special effects will be for such characters as ‘Slimer’ and ‘Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man’.

With their electronic paraphernalia the Ghostbusters team was supremely successful in dealing with all manner of ghosts and ghouls. And, according to costume retailer All Fancy Dress, the officially licensed Ghostbusters Costumes are amongst their best-selling Halloween costumes. According to Matt Foden, AFD’s Marketing Manager, ‘Ghostbusters still has a massive appeal to people of my generation who vividly remember watching the films as children. The Ghostbusters costumes are equally popular with our customers’.

Decade Themed Parties Are the New Big Trend for Fancy Dress

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!”

All Fancy Dress is the New 2011 Trend











All Fancy Dress


(PRWeb UK) January 28, 2011

There are many popular events in the social calendar this year with Easter, World Book Day, Christmas and Halloween already popular with fancy dress fanatics. However, fancy dress hen nights and stag nights, birthdays and student nights are also growing in popularity.

Student nights and Fresher weeks are beginning to incorporate fancy dress themes to bring in more students and business to their clubs. And increasingly party goers are deciding to dress up in costumes for birthday parties, and even for clubbing!

There is always an occasion to dress as your favourite film or music star or in a fun costume that’s sure to get you noticed. With so many occasions to celebrate All Fancy Dress expect the demand for costumes to increase even more in 2011.

Matt Foden of All Fancy Dress commented: “We’re delighted to say that the trend towards dressing up more is set to continue into 2011. I think many people see dressing up as a character as a way of escaping the doom and gloom of the recession and simply having fun! I think it’s important in these times to remember the lighter side of life, and have fun with your friends and family!”
