Help with my ELVIS costume...the theme is "Vegas".

Recommended Posts

There is a party at SD Elsinore on the 16th. It's for Daniella's (adorable office girl) 21st birthday party. I'm competing in the Poker Run, earlier that day, and my 36th b-day is a few days later, so I'll be there. The theme is "Vegas."

I was thinking of dressing up as a Vegas Elvis. :D Please help me choose a costume, if you find one, or post another choice. Thanks!

If you don't want to do any "work" to make one, and just buy one:

Then, here are some pics you could use as a guide:

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Thanks, Max! :)
I will not have the time to make anything, or too sleep much before then. (Today is the only somewhat "free" day that I will have, until that weekend.) I will tailor/take in any costume to fit me. I was a size 00P or 0P at Ann Taylor loft last weekend, so I think that the male costumes will be too big for my petite buns. :D

Hey Rosa, I don't have any costume suggestions, but I'll be turning 36 around that time too! (the 23rd)



June of 1971 was a VERY GOOD year!! B|

ps.... Rosa, here is a rather inexpensive female elvis costume, but I think even the small would have to be taken in for you.

Oh my gosh, you too, Karen? We are all about the same age, aren't we? :)
Karen, that is one of the costumes that I was considering buying, and yes, I'll alter it to fit me. Thank you!

Keely, why don't you come play with us? You live somewhat close, right? You don't even need a costume, if you don't want to wear one. Let me know, if you plan to come by. :)

Oh shnapps. haha. well, hate to break this to you, but, your team is going down! heehee.. so what if you have like a bagillion hours in the tunnel!!! between the lot of ya.



Good for you. I haven't been in the tunnel in about a year and a half. I just want to jump, and I'll do my best. I wasn't going to care if we win or not, but for sure, we'll be trying to kick your team's ass now.
May the best team win! HA! ;)

I think you should be a Showgirl instead of Elvis for a few reasons:

1) You'd make a beautiful showgirl.
2) There will be a LOT of Elvi there.
3) You can get anything and make a headpiece from it..the bigger the better.
4) You can wear those shoes you didn't know WHERE to wear to this ;)
5) You know you have a SHOWGIRL outfit hidden somewhere (don't we all??) ~~~April

Elivs is the lame costume that everyone will dress as. although RO, will be the best looking fat guy there.

What about penn&teller
Celine (yack)
Tom jones.
A lounge singer
Of course, a show girl
Sigfried/Roy or the tiger that ate Roy?
David Blane CLICK THE LINK FOR A LAUGH!
Chris angel
Amazing jonathan
Carrot top
A porn peddler.


That should spice up the party.
these are just costumes that should be EASY to make/find.

Why not talk to some of the Flying Elvises? They might have a jumpsuit that you can borrow, although it might need a helluva lot of safety pins to get it to fit you. :ph34r:

Talk to Bozo... ;)
