Your University years are probably the last acceptable time to go out in fancy dress. Yet with all the different themed fancy dress nights thrown during freshers, finding a new outfit every time is challenging.

Usually, this quick turnaround is no problem for a fun loving, easy going person like you. But there’s one catch – you have to go dressed up. For any normal person this is a time to panic, but luckily you’ve read our short guide on easy last minute fancy dress outfits!

Onesie
Even though this is the comfiest thing to go out in, the onesie is a last resort. A nightmare in any sweaty club with constant toilet queues. However there are many who have graced a student night wearing one, usually in an animal style as they suit many different animal themes.
Plain black or white pumps
Go with anything are cheap and can get ruined
White T-shirt
Not one, or two, but we’d recommend getting three white t-shirts! During freshers you’ll be subject to an array of nights that will involve wrecking your clothes with paint, foam or just rips so a plain white tee is a must. Plus you can adapt them to suit other fancy dress themes.

Cat/Leopard ears
Fits lots of themes- jungle/ Halloween/ Disney/ film/TV character/ Noah’s ark etc.
Face paints
Face paints can make an outfit. From the neck down you might just look like you’re in jeans and a tee, but luckily your face says cat, army man, pumpkin, rabbit etc.
White sheet
Cheap and adaptable, perfect for Halloween (ghost), toga parties, ABC (anything but clothes), Disney/ kids theme (Hercules).
