    Fancy dress ideas; the 90s :)
    So I need some help with any, however crazy or however simple, ideas for a ninities themed fancy dress party.

    So far I've come up with the teletubbies, and although I have no personal objection to Noo-noo and such like, I don't think partying dressed as Laa-laa for example will help me make friends... (although I may have just underestimated the coolness of teletubbies )

    So any ideas would be beautifully help. Thankyou

    I'm liking the idea - but it's a shame you're over estimating my artistic tendencies :P

    Why dress like a tart from the spice girls? That's not nineties. the 90's had some epic fashion, do it some justice and show respect to it by dressing like someone from Saved by The Bell. Wear some proper 90's clothes

    Like baggy jeans belted high on the waist, a Global Hypercolour shirt and an oversized lumber jack shirt over the top; finished off with a pair of LA Gears?

    Ninetiestastic!

    Daria? Kurt Cobain?

    Or you could dress like a typical 90s 'cool girl', so big blow-dried hair, quite heavy and simple make-up, simple, colourful clothes. Here's some inspiration:
