How to pick men’s fancy dress that works on the night

Most men want one of two things from a costume: to look impressive or to look ridiculous. Decide which camp you’re in first, then check the theme. A themed party narrows it down, while a stag do usually means the groom gets the daftest outfit and everyone else matches.

Think about practicalities too. Can you sit down, use the loo and hold a pint without taking half the costume off? Most of our men’s costumes come from fancy dress brands like Rubies, Smiffys and Fun Shack, and they’re made for a few wears. Fabric is light and some fit snugly, which is fine for a party but worth knowing for a long day out.

Superheroes

Officially licensed Marvel and DC costumes look the part, but they cost more than unbranded versions. Muscle-padded suits add bulk, while basic jumpsuits are lighter for dancing. Browse Batman costumes and Spider-Man costumes.

Decades

Flares and wide collars from our 70s fancy dress are an easy win, and shell suits and tracksuits from the 80s range are just as popular.

Funny and stag do outfits

A bride dress, a beer-themed hero or an inflatable costume is pretty much guaranteed to get a reaction. Funny men’s fancy dress works best when you commit fully.

Sizing tips for men’s costumes

Fancy dress sizing often runs small, and plenty of adult costumes are one size. Check chest, waist and height on the retailer’s listing and compare them with our costume size guide. If you’re broad-shouldered or tall, size up, especially for jumpsuits.
