Las Vegas Costume Ideas

How versatile can a Las Vegas fancy dress theme be?

On the face of it, the theme might seem to be all about gangsters, gamblers and showgirls. However, as the famous casinos are located within themed resorts, there is a lot more scope than you might realise: For instance, to save people the bother of having to travel the world, there are microcosmic versions of Paris, New York and Venice on the famous Vegas strip. There are also resorts based on Treasure Island, Circus and, of course, the Wild West (Las Vegas -The Meadows- grew out of a frontier town). Given the number of other specialist hotels (such as the Vegas Hard Rock Hotel which houses many rock & pop artefacts), there are few costumes which cannot be found a place within the theme. Incidentally, an inhabitant of Vegas is known as a Las Vegan (or just Vegan), which is appropriate for a place that can make you feel like you are on a different planet.

A great party theme to have some gambling tables as additional entertainment.
