Spanish Fancy Dress!

Hi All
We are having a farewell party for my brother who is going to live in Spain for a year as part of his uni course.
As he's going to Spain he's decided to make it Spanish themed fancy dress.
I'm after some ideas for something to go as which is maybe a bit 'outside the box' and that no-one else will be dressed as.
There are loads of flamenco dresses on ebay but I've got a feeling every female there will be dressed in one!
Also, I could do without spending a fortune! :money:
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks x

How about a "Spanish Holiday" look? You know, white stilettos, micro mini skirt 2 sizes too small, lobster-red shoulders and cleavage etc:D0

How about something a bit abstract, inspired by Dali or Picasso? Could be fun to make a costume lifting their 'look', depending on how arty you are of course!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0

Thanks, some good ideas there, both things I could try.
Just a thought, is Manuel from Fawty Towers Spanish? All i'd need would be a white shirt, black pants, moustache and a teatowel over my arm! Could be a laugh!0 -

Yeah, that would be a giveaway wouldn't it!?
In my defence, I've only watched it a couple of times!0 -
What about a matador or toreador costume?

Maybe dress up as a giant Chorizo!
Or make a dress from a spanish flag - that should be fairly cheap.
Like someone else said a matador or you could go as the bull?
