The thought of dressing as a nun or a vicar for many people would seem bizarre and then for others it would be the ideal theme for that party or special occasion.
TV program like the Vicar of Dibley starring Dawn French has made dressing like a vicar even more acceptable and this had led to consumers wanting to dress up a vicar for their fancy dress party. The Vicar Of Dibley was the brainchild of Richard Curtis, famous for penning the likes of Blackadder, Four Weddings And A Funeral and Love, Actually.

In recent years customers would have gone to the high street to visit their local fancy dress store but as more and more local specialist businesses have disappeared the growth of the online fancy dress stores have increased and with more consumers confident in the online security and delivery getting better and better customers are becoming more confident in buying fancy dress online.
For the ladies then dressing as a nun is very ironic especially as many of the available costumes are quite sexy and others are more traditional and iconic of the typical nun. While in common usage the terms nun and sister are often used interchangeably, properly speaking a nun is a female religious who lives a complemplative life of prayer and meditation
Current popular themes of fancy dress include:
Cowboys
Angel
Emergency 999
Little Britain
Heaven and Hell
1980’s
Halloween
The choice is massive but at least dressing up as a Nun or a Vicar is different and therefore can offer benefits like not having other people likely to dress up the same at the party.

Historical Fancy Dress costumes make a comeback
In the fast moving trends of fancy dress it is the older historical fancy dress outfits that are becoming more popular.
Nowadays deciding what fancy dress costume or outfit to wear can be a challenge as there are so many options available to buyers ranging from TV, Films, Emergency outfits like Doctors, fireman and policeman to old favourites like cowboys and pirates but hat is surprising is how more and more people are looking to purchase historical fancy dress costumes.
This is likely to caused by the fact that partygoers are looking for something different to wear to make them stand out form the crowd or another possible reason is that with more and more period dramas on TV and Film that people can relate to these times more and want to dress accordingly.
One company offering a good range of historical fancy dress is Novelties 4 Parties – http://www.novelties4parties.co.uk/department/historical-costumes/
Going back through the ages the dress for these times was mainly quite formal and unlike modern times where we tend to dress more casual and this is reflected in the available for costumes available.
More and more local fancy dress shops are closing in favour for larger online stores that offer hundreds of fancy dress costumes and accessories that can deliver quickly so the appetite for consumers to go to their local shops has diminished over the last few years and with consumers having the confidence in the security and the quick delivery that most online retailers offer then the only way the fancy dress market is going is up.Novelties 4 Parties offer great range of historical fancy dress online - Historical fancy dress costumes and accessories or the full range at http://www.novelties4parties.co.uk

Scary Halloween fancy dress designed for scaring children
In February Halloween is some time away but by planning your Halloween now you can select the best way to look scary and maintain your budget.
Halloween costumes are about being creative and having a good time, which makes them the most fun costumes out there. However big or small your age, or your size, there's a costume out there with your name on it. They're the biggest element of the holiday because people enjoy the opportunity to get dressed up in something that they would never normally wear. But of course, Halloween night would not truly be Halloween night without some terrifying Halloween costumes. Zombies, Grim Reapers, and monsters are classic creepy choices. For those grown-ups who value education, there are historical scary Halloween costumes or simply plain and simple some examples such as extravagant Marie Antoinette dresses, sharp colonial George Washington suits, seductive Cleopatra gowns, or honest Abe Lincoln ensembles. Whatever costume you end up with, don't forget that sometimes it's an accessory that will pull your entire outfit together and separate it from everyone else's. Hats, wigs, swords, belts, capes, boots, scarves, and accessories will all take your Halloween costume to a whole new level.
One such company offering scary Halloween fancy dress costumes and accessories is http://www.novelties4parties.co.uk/department/Scary-Halloween-Party/ who have developed their business in supplying scary Halloween costumes and accessories to the UK consumer market.Homemade costumes are great because they are truly one-of-a-kind, they're as much fun to make as they are to wear, and they'll perfectly express your unique personality. Lots people decide to use homemade costumes to save cash, but then they proceed to go out and buy all their materials, rather than using things that are lying around their house. As a result, after all the materials are bought, some home-stitched costumes end up costing even more than the store-bought ones. Don't make that mistake.Halloween, as we know it, originated from the pagan Celtic holiday of Samhain (the eve of All Saints Day). The day allows anyone to step outside of their normal (boring?) self and be someone or something entirely different for the evening. Usually restrained people let loose and get spooky, wild, or wicked without fear of peer judgment. That's why it's a favorite holiday of so many: they love the merriment, amusement, and creativity, as well as the chance to publicly show off their alter egos.

Planning a party then get your themed fancy dress choice correct
Fancy dress ideas party themes can determine not only the tone of the party but also how much fun people will have leading up to the night and ultimately everyone wants their party to be smash hit.
In was only a few years ago when fancy dress was restricted to children's birthday parties and rowdy hen nights – today people all over the country people are discovering the sheer amusement at spending their weekend dressed as a pirate!!
Whether you choose to showcase your weird and wonderful costumes at your local club/pub or in the relative privacy of a house party - fancy dress is a great way to have a brilliantly different night!
Many local suppliers have disappeared for specialist online retailers like Novelties 4 Parties http://www.novelties4parties.co.uk to offer an easy online alternative.
Regardless of how much money you have to spend there are loads of options available for the fancy dress connoisseur! Feeling Flush? Why not splash out on ready made costume with all the trimmings? Watching the pennies? Then put on your best Blue Peter hat and get creative at home. Whatever your budget being dressed up has a great effect on people and is bound to result in an amusing night! Remember selecting your fancy dress costumes is just the start as selecting the matching accessories is also important.
So what makes a good fancy dress costume party theme..? you will want a theme where the costumes, whether made, bought or hired will be reasonably light comfortable to wear. A few ideas would be; Beach Party, Hawaiian Luau, Roman Toga or Mardi-Gras themed parties depending on the weather. These themes also have the advantage of being able to be created cheaply and this maybe something you would want to take into consideration.
Fancy dress retailers are reporting a huge surge in the Stag and Hen market in the last 2 years and interestingly, the costumes being chosen are moving away from the Stag Antlers and naughty accessories traditionally associated with these markets.
Hen parties are now opting for a more themed 'group' look with costumes such as cowgirls, nurses, fairy-tale inspired characters such as Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz's Dorothy, police officers with fluffy handcuffs, female Batgirl and Robins, Pink Ladies, schoolgirls, bunny girls and 60's hippy-inspired mini-dresses. The choice is overwhelming!
