Mandy asks…

Anyone have any ideas for 2 or 3 ladies related to film book or TV chracters? (nothing too clingy)

Two or three of us school office ladies (one might not get involved) need fancy dress outfits for a school fancy dress day. Other than Pink Ladies from Grease we have no ideas. We don't mind not being female characters, but we need to be recognisable by the kids and from film, book or TV. As it is summer costumes need not to be too heavy and we don't want to spend too much.

Be teachers from Hogwarts! All my friends would love that.

James asks…

What to wear...50's and 70's outfit?

Hi. I have to buy two outfits for our school production of Grease. I need a 50's prom dress (found) and then two everyday outfits--One for the first scene, reunion, where it's the seventies. I know bell bottom jeans and funky patterns...Anything else? Hair, shoes, tops, makeup?
I also need an every day outfit from the 50's. No idea how here. Can someone help me with how dresses, hair, shoes, makeup would look?
Thanks so much!

andre1 answers:

Try going on to ebay and looking at vintage.
Im not too sure about the rest. You should ask someone who is older

John asks…

Help With 60s plz x?

Hiya im going to a fancy dress party, but you have to dress up in clothes/a famous person from the 60s. My sister is dressing up from someone from fame and i was thinking about the whole sandy (from Grease) outfit. I need a cheap outfit that i could easily buy (from primark or somewhere). Also, any ideas for what my dad could wear, nothing to dramatic though (he might embaress me) LOL x

andre1 answers:

This site gives some tips on what to do and wear...

Http://www.wikihow.com/Dress-Like-You-Were-in-the-1960's

this is a picture of a very 60's look for women...

Http://www.grooveeffect.com/images/VBarrantes-minidress.jpg

as for your Dad... Men wore anything from suits to just pants that came up it there nipples but I would do this outfit, get a thin tie and he can wear a suit....

but if you want him to be a bit more "sixtish style" try something like this...
Http://growabrain.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/pimpin.jpg more a pimp if anything or he can do just a "loud colored pint" shirt with dress pants and a hat like a Derby Hat or a Fedora
Hope that helps have fun sounds like a great party!

Robert asks…

How do I get a rock n roll outfit together?

For a party, I have to dress up according to the theme, rock n roll. we were given this as help - think elvis, grease, rock chick.
I wanted to go as a rock chick. I pulled together and outfit and want some opinions please. I have no idea if it's rock chick or not!!!

Black skinny jeans
leapord print pums or black ankle boots
oversized, red checked shirt
backcombed/messy hair
heavy black eye make up.. think smoky not gothic!!
red lips... or neutral? which is better?
and a gold head band
and leather jacket!!!
with some jewellery...

If that doesn't seem right, I'd really appreciate help!

andre1 answers:

I like that idea! Its great outfit, another outfit is:


leather jacket
loose beige shirt, or white tee shirt to go at-least past your crotch :P
gold jewelry think crosses, chains
black flats
straightened hair
dark smoky eyes
and natural lips

^^^^^
the look above is very similar to yours, it is inspired from Jenny's look on Gossip Girl episode "Pret a Poor J" or something like that :D

Do you think it would be a cute idea for me and my friends to go to the Halloween dance as the Pink Ladies? (from the movie Grease). We would probably wear clothes like that and style are hair, plus the pink jackets that say Pink Ladies on the back.

Donald asks…

Sandy Costume.?

Im going to a fancy dress party as Sandy from Grease. I'm wearing black skinnies and a black top... what other accssesories do i need and what else should i do with my hair and make-up and things... Im going as her when she's doing 'you're the one that i want' at the end. And i'm going with my boyfriend who is going as danny...

Should i get a pink ladies jacket even though its not in the paticular scene?

Thanks For The Help.

andre1 answers:

She wore red shoes, not black, and they weren't stilletos, they were like a high sandal with a wood sole/heel. Also an elasticated belt.

No jewellery, keep it simple.

Paul asks…

how do grease girls dress?

i have a school concert tomorrow and we are singing a grease medly. my teacher said we can go all out and get the sirt and jacket- uhhh, no thanks! our other option is a black shirt and pants- BORRRRRINGGG! so i want to recreate the outfit sandy wore in the last scene, but school appropriate of course! so i have to work with what I have.

i was thinking about wearing black pants rolled up to about mid-leg and maybe a jean jacket w/ a black shirt under it (we can't wear white) and yeah no slutty shirts lol!
*i was also thinking about wearing a turquoise scarf w/ my outfit just tied around my neck but i dont know if were allowed.

im wondering if this is an okay outfit for tomorrow, im afraid if i go all out i could get in trouble. thanks!

andre1 answers:

I wouldn't risk it. That honestly doesn't sound anything like what Sandy wore, and they may not want you to depict her image in the last scene.

Sharon asks…

hm 50's dressing?

Tomorrow we are supposed to reinact the 50's by dressing like the people from Grease. I dont want a Sandy outfit i just want to know some preppy clothes and stuff that people did in the 50's

andre1 answers:

High waisted jeans/shorts/pants and a tucked in, tight, button up shirt were hot if you were more edgy. More preppy girls would were dresses that cinched at the waist and wore cardigans

Mandy asks…

I'm playing Sandy in Grease, and well... I'm really self concious. In the last scene I have to wear this super tight spandex outfit, like the one Olivia Newton John wore on the movie. I need a really good workout I could do starting now(the shows not till the end of June) Please help!?

andre1 answers:

Go to crossfit.com, I guarantee that if you follow some of the workouts on the site you will fit into any outfit. This site is not for the weak however, you have to be willing to work for what you want. Just take it slow and continue to push yourself.

Jenny asks…

What would be an easy way to make Pink Ladies jackets?

I need to get four or fives pink ladies jackets. I'm not the best at sewing, so I was thinking I could buy the jackets and then add the "Pink Ladies." The jackets from the movies are like solid pink wind breakers with the girls' names embroidered onto the front and the words Pink Ladies embroidered on the back? Suggestions? I was thinking maybe iron-on letters? I want to keep this as low-cost as possible too :) Thanks so much!

Robert asks…

What can a big group dress up as for a sponsored run?

We're doing a sponsored run at school in fancy dress to raise money for local charities. We're in year 9 and need a fancy dress costume that is cheap and easy to make.
The sort of ideas we've come up with are:
The Pink Ladies from Grease.

Something like that (:

andre1 answers:

I *love* this idea. You want to be sure the costumes let you move freely and aren't too hot. Skirts are excellent for this, since runners can wear shorts underneath.

IMO, the more silly and/or outlandish, the better. Why not have everybody dress as ? Lots of ways to do that, spending a little. Or everybody dress as a character from The Nightmare Before Christmas, or Harry Potter, or anything else with a variety of looks? Or all of you dressed as Superman--red and blue running clothes, red knee socks (in lieu of boots) and a cape, plus the big S.

Being able to dress as a recognizable group but not being identical within the group is the way to go.

Daniel asks…

I need to find a beginning with the letter G? Any ideas?

My best friend is having a fancy dress party for her 16th with the theme being G, as its the starting letter of her name.

She's having a fancy dress competition, and the one with the best costume wins a prize!

I really would like to win so i was hoping for some really good ideas beginning with G!

I was thinking a 'grease' girl as in Pink Ladies but I think it's a rubbish idea.

I need help please guys!

And by the way, I would not like to spend loads of money on this outfit!

Thank you!

Audition in for sandy in Grease can you help?

Hey! I am 13 years old and I am auditioning for Sandy in a local 8-13 play of grease. I have a good voice and i have dirty blonde hair. Even my director who doesn't give out many compliments said i have a wonderful voice. I really want sandy! My audition is next Friday. I have a vocal coach and I am practicing my audition song Freddy My love with her. I cannot wear a costume. Any audition tips for getting sandy? thank you soo much!

Acting wise mainly i would focus on how u would want to portray sandy, don't focus on how the film or previous performances portray her focus on what u see sandy to be how u see her to act, what type of mannerisms she has.
