We all remember the original Where's Wally books don't we? Maybe you don't, but they were first launched in 1987, and in North America are known as Where's Waldo? They were created by the children's author and illustrator Martin Handford.
Whether you're male or female, if you're stuck for a good 80s fancy dress costume idea, then how about dressing-up as the legendary Wally or his girlfriend Wenda?
Now, I was going to suggest the four piece Wenda costume kit above for ladies, but on checking the customer reviews there are far too many negative comments. However, a much better alternative is available which also comes with a skirt...
This five piece outfit includes red and white striped tights and top, bobble hat, round geek glasses and a blue skirt. It's available in sizes extra small to 14 and has received a much more positive response by customers at Amazon UK.
For men, there are lots of Wally costumes available, with and without the blue trousers.
If you're on a budget, then this striped t-shirt with hat and round glasses should fit the bill. It's priced at just £8.99, plus delivery, and is available in sizes small to XX large.
The best-rated and most popular, complete Wally costume is this one. It's available for sizes 42/44 chest and looks really authentic.
However, there are many more costume options and you can see everything available through this link
