Re: 80's party
Watch Miami Vice - and go for the bright suit jacket - with rolled up sleeves...
If you can add into that a 'flock of seagulls' haircut, you're away

Re: 80's party
You can buy a SVEN SAYS RELAX t'shirt from http://www.asos.com/index.asp !
You probably should go for the Miami Vice suit with slip on deck shoes and those dodgy shades with the silver bits on the edge. Course the tie needs to be pencil thin too !

You could always get a white t shirt, scan a "Frankie Says Relax", get a t shirt transfer and print the scanned image on it.

Just use a large white bath towel
Just look at how Rod Stewart dresses and copy him - tres 80s.
Info: for those who have no idea - before Pampers came along people used towelling nappies. You had to soak them in boiling water to get, er, everything off them. Special buckets with lids were available for this purpose. I can still remember the one my parents used. Once soaked you washed them in the normal way - by hand or possibly in a twin tub. Them were the days
