Miss Piggy - then you can just uber-glam up for New Year, add a long blond wig and a piggy nose.

God I frickin' hate fancy dress - it makes me cringe.

We go to a NYE party with same group every year - last 2 years it has been fancy dress.

I have already announced I am NOT participating in dressing up this year.

But - my friends went as Barbara and Tom from the Good Life last year, (70s theme) complete with bottle of Peapod Burgundy.

God, I hate fancy dress!

If you don't fancy it then don't! Get a nice glam dress, sexy shoes etc and turn up like that!

Go as the Green Goddess, or Mad Lizzie or Boy George

When did he do that thing of painting his neck black? Think that was 90's

Maxi dress with platform heels. Lots of blue eye shadow and flicked hair.
