    costume advice needed

    Friends are having a Murder Mystery party and so advice is needed on suitable attire.

    My character is a silver spooned 80s Yuppie and so all related suggestions are welcome.

    I'm thinking along the lines of Gordon Gekko at the mo. The more OTT the better. Suggestions for props also.

    Get thinking people.

    TIA

    How about something along the lines of American Psycho? Complete with business cards and chainsaw.
    Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

      Borrow one of Wilmslow's business suits...

        Dont forget the red suspenders (or braces as we like to call them in the UK) with the $ signs on.

                hmmm.... I like it. Where can I find the worlds largest mobile phone?

                Agree that BP's braces are a must.

                  Be sure to wear a very bad taste tie and carry a big brick mobile phone.

                  A bit like this chap

                  A tie clip, white collared shirt, red braces and hair gel will really complete the image.

                  See if you can hire a Ferrari Mondial or a Porsche 928.

                    Oh yeah, and don't forget to tell everyone that your house is worth twice as much as you paid for it.
