[iansull]

Hi everyone, going to a themed ball/dinner at the end of next week and the theme is black and white.

now, apart from the obvious blues brothers get up,does anyone have any ideas as i haven't got a clue really!

anything off the wall would be seriously considered and preferred

Go as a literal mime, eating a black and white banana.....

Or you could go dressed entirely in grey, the perfect blend of black and white.....

Very easy, all you'll need is white shirt + trousers, white box, Dr Martens, a bowler, a walking cane and 1 false eyelash.

Just thought of it 'cause it was on last night...

My first thought too

[FourWheelDrift]

How about kitting yourself out in a normal suit but only using grey tones, colour your face & hair too. As if you were in B&W not colour.

Go as a photographic negative.
Black shirt, white suit and shoes, black socks. Better still if you can get one of those eighties' 'piano' ties in leather. MMmmmmm.
