    How about pirates? Especially given that it is a PIRATE party!

    I don't get this girl/boy gender divide where all the girls dress up as fairies/princesses and the boys are pirates or something cool. This is part of the pinkification of girls and needs to be stamped out!

    Completely agree. I'm a little confused on the question actually - do you mean how would you make a good pirate outfit for a girl or are you saying that the girls shouldn't be pirates and should be something else instead?
  • I am with the above two posters - if you are going to have a pirate party for your daughter, why wouldn't your daughter and any other girls be dressed as pirates?

    As its pirate themed , why don't you put on the invites , everyone can come as characters from hook the film . There's plenty to choose from then...

    Why arrange a themed party and not know what to do for the theme,it would have been easier to know what you could do then have the theme around that i.m.o
