If you are looking for Grease fancy dress you are probably going to a very specifically themed party or you know exactly what Grease fancy dress costume you want.
It is a great style of fancy dress and quite easy to achieve but there are only limited character options if you want to dress as a specific character from the film.
If you are happy to dress more generally it helps to think about 1950’s fashion and American high school styles of the fifties.
The obvious character choices for Grease fancy dress costumes are Danny Zuko for the boys or Sandra Dee for the girls but both of these characters have two different looks in the film.
Sandy starts off as prim and proper fifties girl wearing either a Rydell High cheer leader inspired outfit such as this Adult Grease Sandy Costume with a red top with red collar and attached shimmering red skirt. You can add a blonde Sandy wig and other accessories such as Red & White Pom Poms to complete the 50’s cheerleader look.
Sandy changes at the end of the film and wears a more sexy outfit consisting of tight black trousers and a black off the shoulder top with high heels and red lipstick. You can create this look and top it off with a Pink Ladies jacket.
You can buy an official Grease Fifties Pink Lady (Budget Jacket) with black embroidered lettering saying “Pink Ladies” to front breast and a similar embroidered font on the back.
Alternatively you could wear this jacket with a pink wig to become Frenchie or you could get a complete Pink Ladies outfit. This Adult Official Grease Pink Lady Costume includes a black top with attached baby pink skirt with black poodle motif and silver sequin detailing.
Also included is a matching baby pink jacket and black and white checked scarf.
So for the boys’ Grease fancy dress outfits you have to think Teddy Boy, 1950’s rock n roll and the T birds in Grease. You just need an Adult T Bird Jacket.
This jacket has the words “T-Bird” in white lettering on the back and is made with a leather look with elasticated waistband and cuffs, and has an ‘open’ front look.
Wear it with a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt and accessorise with a Flick Comb, which looks like a flick knife, but flicks out with a press of a button to be a comb, just like Danny Zuko’s.
Other great accessories for men’s Grease fancy dress costume include Teddy Boy 1950s style black wig with quiff and sideburns.
