Fancy dress?!

[Spice17]

Hi all

My mum is getting married and told me yesterday that her hen do will be fancy dress, I'll be about 6 and a half months by then, any ideas what the heck I can wear?

I would rather not do it tbh, is bad enough finding a normal outfit to go out in but am also chief bridesmaid (yep, big fat pregnant one!) :)

The theme is S or D. Do I go homemade? As pretty sure you can't buy maternity fancy dress? Help!

I had a friend who used a cardboard box to make an oven to go over her bump. Bun on the oven. Does not go with theme though, so not hugely helpful

Sigourney Weaver in Alien. Grey sweats and a paper mâché alien busting from your bump!

Cheap, comfy and VERy funny!

Could you go as a Doctor? Big white doctors coat worn over your bump and a bunch of stethescopes etc hanging in front to 'mask' the bump?

OR....blue comfy pyjamas, slippers covered with carrier bags, cotton mask over your mouth....Surgeon? Nice and comfy

Slug - Grey leggings and top, sparkly cardi, deely bopper eyes...

Dog - brown or white trousers and top, ears or mask that you have to take off when you get your first drink

Good luck!

Oooh, some good ideas there, thanks. Purple, loving the slug one, might go one step further and be a snail!

Naisy. also think the Alien Sigourney idea is fab!

I am loving Sigourney Weaver or a snail. Doing something with the bump would be brilliant

virgin mary?

oh sorry missed that the theme was s or d. will put my thinking cap back on!

Snail would be good but require far more effort with cardboard boxes and sticky back plastic

What's s or d?

Never mind just got it!

I missed that. What is S or D?

Get yourself a pink tracksuit top some
Massive earrings and go as Vicky Pollard

presumably the costume has to start with an S or a D. Hence Snails and Doctors

Tack green crepe paper circles to a normal top that fits and go as a Salad?

OK...

Santa (round belly a bonus)
Super mum (put the big S on your bump)
Domestic goddess (pinny, feather duster)
Dolly parton (if you've got good pregnancy cleavage)

I think I like Sigourney Weaver best though

Spacehopper! orange leggings and top and make some antennae to attach to a hairband.

My friend did the Sigourney Weaver one at a halloween party, it went down really well!

Space hopper is inspired!

D ---- a duck? You'll have the waddle downpat by then

Sigourney Weaver or the Spacehopper have to be done

Spacehopper is great!

I went to a sixties fancy dress party at 6 months pg last year. Wore a tie dye maxi dress, cnd earings etc. S for Sixties chick?
