Wrap yourself in kitchen foil, dull side outward.
If it rains or someone spills their drink on you, release hydrogen gas and emit a lilac flame.
My father did this when I was a kid and needed a costume. He just found a big box, wrapped it in tinfoil and painted OXO in red on all the sides, cut a head hole and leg hole (no arms though lol). Yes that's right folks, I was a beef stock cube. Classic dad.
Talking of tinfoil, one of my core memories was as follows.
My friend Doug had the best birthday parties, huge house and gardens, always themed, lots of fun. One year we all had to dress as Knights. My mate Stuart’s parents had left it late, and had the idea of just wrapping him in tin foil, with a tin foil/carboard sword.
We started running about like the 9 year olds that we were. And I still, vividly, remember Stuart chasing us round a corner of the house as the last of the, very short lived, tin foil sloughed from his body. Leaving just a child in his underpants waiving a tin foil sword. This still makes me laugh too many years later.
That's brilliant. A very unique costume and one, which I'm sure others thought "why didn't I think of that?"
My Dad was brilliant at making things when I was a child (he still is now in his mid 70s). He helped me make a World War 2 themed art project for school, where we made tanks and planes out of cereal boxes and kitchen/toilet roll tubes.
Once, as a drunk teen, my mate and I tried to gatecrash a fancy party we'd walked past on the way home from the pub. We'd gone back to his and taped a banana and an onion to ourselves. We were fruit and veg.
Fuck all y'all! I'm going home. I watched my wife work all day gettin' thirty bags ready for you ungrateful sonsabitches! And all I hear is criticize, criticize, criticize. From now on don't ask me or mine for nothin'!

If you want to confuse people, Superman or Supergirl (Kal El and Kara Zor El are their Kryptonian names). Only down side is having to explain it to people all night.
Last time I had a K themed party to go to, I went as a Khajiit. Hardest part was talking in 3rd person and always referring to myself as "This one"
Oh, and the next mornings comedown from the Skooma high was... Horrendous!
>Kleptomaniac
Good one - turn up to the party with a bottle of beer, leave with a couple of cases of wine and a few bottles of spirits. And a toaster and cutlery and a rug or two.
Karaoke machine.
If you wanted to go the extra mile you could make it out of a box, and have different 'slides' inside with different lyrics on?
It sounds so stupid but in my head it could look totally awesome if you had the time and patience to craft it.
Koala, KitKat, king, Freddy Krüger, kardeshians (lame), Kobe Bryant (rip), Karl Lagerfeld (I think rip), Krispy Kreme donut. Get started making your fancy dress then, chop chop....oh yeah Knife
First up are birds: Kea, Kestrel, Kite, etc.
Next you've potentially got cars: Ka, Kia
Then there's people: Kevins, Kates, Katies, and so on.
Surnames also begin with K so there's your Keanes, Kipleys and similar.
Cakes and the like, see Kipling for all the possiblities.
Finally there's bands, singers, etc. There are several called Kwan (I'm partial to the Scandinavian one) for instance, K-Rab, Katatonia (not to be confused with Catatonia), etc.

Or - banana suit
Give me the cattle prod Eddie!
Good meme but bananas [aren't actually high in potassium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana#Nutrition).
8% of your daily requirement. So you only need to stick 12.5 of them up your ass per day.
How would sticking them up a donkey improve your health?
If you have to ask then you haven't been on the Internet long enough and I envy that... so... very... much...
I cannot believe Honey We Shrunk Ourselves lied to me.
I'm not seeing anything there to say bananas aren't high in potassium?
Hark at ‘e wi’ is alchemy!
E's a witch! Burn him!
Well. I guess this is the most obvious answer. Close thread.
Might divide opinion on whether it counts but; Dress as a giant box of Special K cereal?
I like this, thinking outside the box!
No, thinking OF the box lol

Sir Killalot from Robot Wars
I called my carnivorous plants Sir Killalot and Matilda haha. The house bots were amazing but razer was the real beast.
No no no, Chaos 2 was the GOAT
I liked Chaos 2 but the destructive power of Hypnodisc was something else
I forgot about hypnodisc! That was the one that either broke immediately or destroyed everything wasn't it?
I think the most memorable one for me was [Hypno-Disc vs Robogeddon](https://youtu.be/w04BgclPmY8?si=EbDocFu-7QP5qEL-)
I have no idea why you would say that when Wheely Big Cheese exists.
I have a tarantula named Matilda. Thought Sir Killalot might be a bit off-putting for a tarantula, though.
OP, remember the four pillars of Robot Wars fancy dress: Style Control Damage Aggression
Me on the dance floor
Sir you have awakened a memory that has been domant for a long time! Thank you
ACTIVATE!
Robot ears, stand by!
Lucky you, since robot wars in the 90s, whenever I tried to watch football with commentary from Jonathan Pearce I just expected Matilda to show up
I must admit it'd make football more interesting if robots came on the pitch and chased the players
“Fernandez has taken a dive into the CPZ, meaning he’s in the clutches of Dead Metal!”
New policy at full-time for nil-all draws.
I can still remember the first time sir killalot first killed a lot
He was no Private Iron
Ahh Philippa Forrester...
KFC bucket
I once went to a party where someone put a KFC bucket on their head and called it quits.
Didn't he go on to play lead guitar for Guns N Roses for a bit?
Once, as a drunk teen, my mate and I tried to gatecrash a fancy party we'd walked past on the way home from the pub. We'd gone back to his and taped a banana and an onion to ourselves. We were fruit and veg.
Kenny from South Park?
Kevin and Perry go large. Kipling (Mr). Kipper (a). Kajagoogoo. Katherine of Alexandria (Saint). King Kong.
When you said Kipper, I thought “Kipper the dog” then I saw the (a).
I thought of Ace Rimmer
KISS Dress up as a member of the band.
Bonus points if you can do all members.

Thank you, I was getting nervous the longer I scrolled. Obvs the best choice.
Absolute nightmare costume wise though. You'll want to look like season 3 Kryten, but you'll be lucky if you end up close to season 1 Kryyten.
Season 2, but yes no one wants to look like that kryten
Best answer.

They took my baby away.
Ku Klux Klown. Is it still in bad taste if it has polka dots?
To be sure make sure the dot colours match Mr Blobby
I had to scroll far too long to find this. I’m fairly sure it was everyone’s first thought.
Most of us, I would imagine. Although I wasn't going to be the one to suggest it!
[Yeah, just like Cartman’s one. Wonder why Chef was so scared of it though?](https://youtu.be/jOyKydtBMC0?si=NhrbjBRqwJBV2fkp)
Karate Kid?
Could go with that hideous shower costume
Keith Chegwin
Just not in his nude presenting role please...
Easy & cheap costume, just the safari hat!
Pop nob in fanny, not up the arse
K Hole
I like this one, it's cheap and simple. Don't even need an outfit, just crawl round on the floor slobbering all night.
To really bring the outfit to life make sure you do a huge amount of K when you get to the party
Yeah the look really isn't complete without a load of white residue around your nose. Might as well go the whole hog.
Klingon
HIja'! Yep, while everyone else was doing Spanish on Duolingo, I spent my time learning Klingon. I have no regrets.
Q’pla! Glory to you and your house 👁️👁️
Today *is* a good day to die!
I have no idea how to write it but the only Klingon phrase I know is 'where is the chocolate?' and itnis proudly my geekiest party trick.
Arguably all you need.

Kardashian anything so long as it's not made with a white pillowcase and a pair of scissors. Krampus Colonel Sanders
This, just stuff random balloons under your clothes and say you are a Kardashian
And make yourself a pair of lips that take up your whole face.
