Default MSE fancy dress party, what would you wear?

Ok, suppose the party is booked - no theme, what would you dress up as?

I'd probably dress up as a wench. It flatters the larger busted lady and, properly done, hides the bits I don't like. Plus I can act all flirty and naughty and blame it on the character

I would go as Marie Antoinette. Although I have a medieval style dress hanging in my wardrobe so I could always go as a 16th century lady.

For a female, the "schoolgirl" is nice and MSE. A short skirt, old shirt and vaguely schoolish tie, cheapo pair of stockings and suspenders and a pair of killer heels. Oh, and a straw boater is good!

You can get most of the stuff in charity shops and Primark and you'll be guaranteed loads of attention at the party!!:

I went to the first MSE party held in London in March 2004. It wasn't fancy dress but it was brilliant.

Adey's underpants

or, leather.

Getting them off him might prove problematic...
If the late 1950s and early 1960s teach us one thing, it is that mere economic contentment will not in itself create a settled society if it is accompanied by an ossified social structure which has not adjusted to the new financial empowerment.
