Finding an original
fancy dress costume for a hen can be very challenging, and many of the on-line sites sell the same outfits for very different prices particularly when they are coming to the end of the year in preparation for new stock.
Large wholesale fancy dress companies normally only review their range once a year so there are plenty of bargains to be found when the range is not selling or is being upgraded. The companies that buy these costumes have to try and forecast sales a long way in advance and often they get it wrong so by searching around there are plenty of bargains to be had. Most sites tend to stick with a very standard range of outfits that are not going to set the pulse racing so finding something original can be difficult.
There are now though a very small number of sites that are offering something different with a range of original and unique themed fancy dress costumes and accessories. When it comes to organising a hen party, originality is king so you need to find the independent sites that are producing costumes, outfits and t shirts that you just will not find elsewhere.
If you are responsible for organising a hen party then finding the right outfit for the hen is crucial. Why not get help from the rest of the hen party by asking if they fancy coming up with a few ideas each. Often combining a funny or sexy outfit for the hen along with t shirts and accessories the rest of the group can wear. A slogan on a t-shirt for the rest of the group is a popular thing to do and by spending some time thinking about the hen you can come up with a much more personal slant to their fancy dress costume and t shirts. Just remember they hopefully will only be getting married once so do not just settle for a boring hen party costume, give them a day to remember and guarantee some laughs by finding something that little bit different.
Ultimately the main point of a hen party is to ensure the hen enjoys an equal amount of attention and embarrassment. This will not be achieved if you dress her up like every other hen in the town! After living and working in Blackpool for 4 years and in the hospitality industry I have seen hundreds of different hen parties and I promise you the more effort that goes into dressing the hen and her party, the more male attention you receive. If you fancy your chances of going down in hen history do your homework and don’t leave the costume to the last minute.
