Done tutus and the 1980s to death? Here are my top hen party themes and trends for 2015.
S Club are back together and gigging! Take That are on tour! Mulder and Scully are reuniting for the X Files! Platforms are back in, and everyone's watching Friends re-runs (again!). The 90s are most definitely having a moment. Get a Rachel cut, do a Spice Girls dance lesson and take a trip down memory lane.
The Grand National at Aintree in April, May at Chester Racecourse, and Ascot in June! If spending a day quaffing champagne in a huge hat, posh frock and skyscraper heels sounds like your idea of a good time, theme your hen do on a day at the races. Have a little flutter on the gee-gees and you might even leave with more wonga than you went with.
Be queens of mean with this badass hen party theme! The bride gets to be Catwoman (obvs.) but there's plenty of scope with this one on the fancy dress front. Do Poison Ivy or Harley Quinn from Batman, evil queen Cersei from Game of Thrones, or nasty nurse Elle Driver from Kill Bill. A theme like this calls for something naughty but nice on the activity front. Whisk the girls off to Forbidden Nights in London . It's a male strip show...but definitely not as you know it!
Attenshun! Military is one of the top fashion trends this year (yet again!) but it's loads of fun for hen do fancy dress. Rock Christina Aguilera 's Navy officer look in the video for Candyman. Be Forces sweethearts or '40s pin-ups. Bust out the camo gear, do laser combat and enjoy the whole paintballing thing without the pain.
The whole DIY wedding trend is still massive. If you need hen party themes for a DIYer, a home hen is well worth a look. This is great if you're all a bit short on cash, have kids, and can't get away for a weekend. Stock up on prosecco, get the nibbles out, and do a kitchen disco! There are plenty of activities you can try on a home hen, like fascinator making , a cupcake workshop , and life drawing with a buff male model.
Yes, it's still hotter than a chilli chicken wing! The sequel, Fifty Shades Darker, isn't out until 2016. If your inner goddess is jumping up and down with impatience, keep her happy with a Fifty Shades hen do. You can really go to town with this one, with everything from cheeky butlers to Chippendales . Go the whole hog with a dominatrix class and learn the tricks of the trade from a real life mistress! Mr Grey definitely wouldn't approve...
