Rocky Horror - dressing up at 5 months pregnant?!

[holywoodmum]

Hey all,
Going to see the Rocky Horror Show live in Belfast at the start of April - I'll be 23 weeks pregnant then...
I've never been before, not sure about what to wear Not sure I'm up for all out dressing up, but wondering even what style of clothing to go for?! I'm normally pretty casual, I'll be out of my comfort zone either way!
Any suggestions appreciated!

Oooooo! im going to see it at the end of march in sheffield!
Im going as magenta

Everyone dresses as a character so there will be people in maids outfits,gold hotpants,suspenders,fishnets and black capes
My extremely camp friend is wearing a pair of gold spankies (little gold pants) and nothing else!(rocky ofc)

The most decent one is probs magenta,you can get an outfit off ebay.....
this one: https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/French-Maid-...QQptZAdult_Fancy_Dress_UK?hash=item35a68fdfd4 (although you might not want this one if your showing)

or this one which is more decent??https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Magenta-Rock...QQptZAdult_Fancy_Dress_UK?hash=item25590c9329

hope this helps xx

Oh defo dress up Your bump will be small at 5 months anyway.

 

[holywoodmum]

ooh thanks!! not sure I've got the pins for that, bump or not!!
but yes, that might at least be manageable! going to somemore research now one of hte ohters going will be 4 months pg, so at least i won't be the only sober one!

I would go as magenta too.although,if that kind of dress makes you feel uncomfortable you would fit in just as well as janet (before she ended up in just her bra and petticoat though)!!

 

[holywoodmum]

ooh have to go and google janet now! - i really am clueless!

 

[aly888]

Have you not seen rocky horror?!janet is pretty boring in comparison,but she is conservative and a good option for those that wouldnt feel comfortable in hotpants and corsets!!lol

Ahh, I love Rocky Horror

If you don't want to expose too much, how about wearing surgical scrubs over the top?

 

[holywoodmum]

No never seen it! Thining I should rent it beforehand perhaps!!
I'm being more drawn to the idea of Magenta... Janet does look dull!!
Do people dress up, but not as anyone specific?

You could go as on of the Trasylvanians - like this (though obviously you wouldn't have to do the pelvic thrust all night!):

I'd definitely watch the film before you see the show or you won't know when to use your props! I saw Jason Donovan play Frank N. Furter years ago and he was brilliant.

Thanks for the link, I reckon I could be a Transylvanian i've added the film to my lovefilm, urgent!! I've got a month to watch it

so this is what I ended up with... black leggings, black vest, turquoise tutu and boa... oh and I had rainbow leg warmers on, but out of shot... thanks for the advice and encouragement!! The belast crowd were quite tame really, more in civvies than dressed up, but glad I made a bit of an effort!
