Join us for a blast from the past: The 80’s prom theme party at Backstage SB
Santa Barbara Event Horizon’s 1st Flashback Event
Dust off your old prom dress and tux (or your parents’!) because September 30th will be a real blast from the past with an 80’s prom theme party at Backstage.
What to expect:
6:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Limo Service – Champagne to start the night
6:30 pm: Doors open, check-in on the red carpet with a professional photographer. Check out the photo booth to capture all the retro fashion and antics
10:00 pm: Best 80’s outfit/costume contest
Costume: So many options
Gentleman go as early hip-hop, goth, hair metal, or preppy! Wear a leather jacket, a polo shirt and pegged jeans, a mullet, or get inspiration from Michael Jackson or “Flashdance.”
Ladies can get inspiration from early Madonna, “Flashdance”, Dynasty, or Robert Palmer girls. Just hit up a thrift shop and look for shoulder pads, sequin dresses, fingerless gloves, ankle socks, cropped denim jackets, white denim, stirrup pants, off-the-shoulder tops, and anything leather with fringe. For a DIY option, shred a t-shirt and put beads on the shreds!
Accessorize with wigs, fake earrings for men, dyeable shoes, pastel colors, or high-top sneakers with two different color socks on each foot. I went with lee-press on nails, ankle socks, a banana clip, fingerless lace gloves, shiny plastic-feather earrings, and lots and lots of hairspray and blue eyeshadow.
