What to Wear at the SCBWI Party (And No Pirates in Sight!)

By Olivia Levez




The Sea. Just go as the sea. Here is version 1 = very classy.

And here is version 2 = not so classy (but does have a modesty scallop.)

Or you could go all elegant and understated, maybe as a pineapple...

And, if you're feeling that little bit more crafty, here are three different palm tree costumes. 

Here's a more, um, ridged version.

Damn it, why not go as the entire island?

Not really pirates, but here's Wilson from Castaway.

Still a little lost? There's always a Lost Boy.

If you're feeling the after-effects of Hallowe'en, perhaps a shark and its mangled pirate victim might float your boat?

Still on creatures of the sea, here's the perfect outfit for another daring duo.

Or grab that spare brolly and become a little jellyfish!

Make like Marie Antoinette, and cunningly craft a ship to your tresses.

Finally, forget the pirates, and become a parrot instead. Here are four to get you started...

Why have a babysitter when you can accessorise?

Get all creative with hair chalks (easy to make from old chalk pastels, but might mess up that B&B washbasin...)

So obviously I'm going as this one. Easy. Nothing to it.
