    Gotta be fishnet suspenders, a mini-shirt and some kind of revolting-coloured corset / sleeveless top. :yes:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Did you mean mini-skirt?? Also plenty of makeup is a good idea ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    It's all about the fishnet stockings, some long fingerless gloves and a big curly wig would be good too. :thumb:

    Lol wouldn't have a clue. Large?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    For tights large is easy. Try your local second hand shops- tights'll only be 50p. Or you can buy them online. I've bought tights online from... one min, I'll find the ad, ebay'll probably have some bargains too.

    What with a skate? :p No thanks.

    It's strange actually, the first time I've looked at what's on at the Mayflower for years was yesterday and I was conemplating going with this bird I met the other day. She on holiday though so it aint happening.

    know i've asked this before but what the hell is a skate? i'm guessing its another one of those sad names put to people who live in a certain areas.

    You must know. It's a rivalry thing where we the scummers (from Soton), look down on the skates (from Pompey), for being a bunch of fucking cackers and hooligans.

    It's more than that. It's dockers thing too. An age old rivalry.

    Go to something like this on your own then- all the people you'll meet will be people who are 'cool' enough to be into it too!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I've been 3 times...dressed up once.
    Tiny french maids outfit and frilly knickers! \m/

    If you dont want to do the full Frankenfurter thing just wear fishnets and high heels with a lab coat over them. That's what most of the guys were wearing when I went.

    Last time I went to see it that narrator was Lional Blair... :crazyeyes
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    I went when i was 15 (3 years a go) and lets just say it was an eye-opening experience lol.
    I wore hotpants, fishnets, boob tube and knee high boots. Was a really good show so sure you will enjoy it.

    Two of my mates are going in April for their birthdays. They didn't bother asking me along, even though I was the original fan. One of them hasn't even seen the film! It frustrates me!

    you can't be a fan if you haven't seen the film, chances are she wont even like it when she sees it!
