I tried to combine my two favourite pastimes: eating and dressing, and threw this costume spit roast costume together for 20 euros for a huge fancy dress competition that is held in a town in Ireland on the August bank holiday weekend every year. Competition is fierce and it is a big deal to win so I’m hoping!
My idea consisted of me dressing up as a pig and being the main part of a dinner feast. I made it look like i was a pig on a platter in the middle of a table set for four people with plates, cutlery and glasses. I made the table out of cardboard and held it up with a pair of my uncles braces. I then decorated the plates with pasta and sauce that I dried and stuck together with glue.
I think it came together fairly well and am really looking forward to seeing if everybody at the festival likes my idea.
Did you Win?
That’s so cool! How anyone can remain looking pretty even with a pigs nose on only god knows!
I remember this. It was brill! Roll on belturbet fancy dress. Best night of the whole year.
I love this idea so much! I plan on doing this next year with my significant other as a waiter. You’re so imaginative!
