What to Wear
Sequins, spotlights, capes or chaos, your look is limited only by your imagination. Here’s some ideas to set the scene.
It’s show time.
“Dazzle. Shock. Leave them begging for a sequel.” Arrive like you’ve just stepped out of a paparazzi flashbulb frenzy. Go full Oscar-winning drama with Jared Leto’s furry feline couture, Audrey Hepburn’s timeless floral chic, or Zendaya’s sci-fi warrior armour. Sequins, velvet, latex - whatever it takes to stop traffic.
Hollywood royalty, with a twist.
Channel your inner Disney princess, go superhero spandex, or lose yourself in Joker’s smudged lipstick and questionable life choices. Better yet, mash it all up: a Franken-costume stitched together from your greatest film obsessions. Imagine Darth Vader in Dorothy’s ruby slippers. Now that’s cinema.
Time travel has never looked this good.
Pick an era, any era. Classic ’70s cool, ’80s neon nostalgia, or any cult flick as old (or older) than me. Bonus points for outfits that make people squint and mutter: “Wait… is that from Flash Gordon, or did you just raid Oxfam?”
The extras.
Don’t fancy hogging the limelight? Embrace the unsung heroes of cinema. How about that Stormtrooper who famously smacked his head, a background zombie from Shaun of the Dead, or that bowling alley nobody in The Big Lebowski that’s barely remembered.
And the award goes to…
“Cue tears. Cue speeches. Cue confetti cannon.”
Yes, there will be awards. Real, glittering, highly prestigious awards. Your chance to finally clutch a “Best Outfit” statuette, complete with tears, speeches, and dramatic pauses. So, dig deep, think big, and dress like your Oscar depends on it - because it does.

Where to stay
Whether you’re booking into a high-class suite worthy of a Bond villain, a cosy hideout straight out of a rom-com, or just crashing somewhere to sleep off your Oscar-winning performance, check out the map for some suggestions.
Airbnb
