50's to me screams patterns, loafers, and sharp tailored trousers. And quiffs. And neckties. And the Cold War.
I've been invited to a club night tomorrow with a sort of fifties swing and rock n' roll vibe. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions on what to wear. I'm definately going to keep it quirky and not take myself too seriously.
I was thinking -
- a bow tie (don't know about whether to go all out or keep it simple)
- an oxford shirt
- a blazer of some sort (maybe corduroy for extra "old-man" feel)
- Coloured chinos
- Brogues
- Maybe braces
I also might slick my hair back with a more wet product than usual - thinking early Cliff Richard aha
Any other ideas? Crazy as possible!

I would keep it simple - slim black trousers/jeans, rolled with white socks (!!!!), white t-shirt and slim black braces. And a brylcreemed quiff. Tia
