Pink Ladies fancy dress costumes really are a great example of 50's fancy dress, which just sum up perfectly that particular style of the post-war period. First featured in the hugely popular film Grease, starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, they are certainly a fun outfit to wear to any fifties themed party that you may be invited to, or indeed to your local bowling alley on a girl's night out.
Nowadays, you can purchase different Pink Ladies costumes online, which really do look the part. However, you can make your 50's fancy dress outfit look even more authentic by adding a number of great affordable accessories to it.
A fifties style wig
Perhaps the easiest way to add that little extra touch of authenticity to your costume is to go online and buy yourself a fifties wig. You could either go for the long blonde High School Honey type of look or for a more classic looking 1950's Brunette wig, complete with the detachable headband. Either way, going that extra mile by purchasing a wig will help make your outfit that little bit more convincing.
Pink PVC hat
Of course, wearing a wig is not for everyone and a good alternative is to buy a 50s style hat. A pink PVC type hat will not only be in keeping with the period, but will also match your Pink Lady outfit.
1950's sunglasses
One of my personal favorite items to complete these outfits is a pair of 1950's Sunglasses. Those super stylish spectacles, as worn by the likes of Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy, will just look great with your outfit and will really get you in character.
Black and white chequered scarf
Another good little touch to set off your 1950's outfit is a chequered scarf. It is quite likely that you will have a black and white chequered scarf lying around in a drawer somewhere and it is always great if you can recycle accessories so as to keep the overall cost of your costume as low as possible. This way you can spend your budget on those special items that will really set your costume apart.
Bowling bag
Of course, the ultimate accessory for those Pink Ladies outfits has got to be the Official Grease Pink Lady bowling bag. These superb looking pink and black bowling bags are available from most 50's fancy dress specialist websites and will complete your outfit perfectly.
So where can you get all these 50's Fancy Dress Accessories?
