Russian Themed Party

My agency party is next week and it is Russian themed - as in, commie threat, KGB, cold war, Bond vixens. Being held at a club called Red Square here in Toronto. I already secured myself a black russian fur hat and Hammer and Sickle pin for the fron of the hat, and will be wearing a sultry black dress. But I need more ideas. I have the nauiseating feling I will be surrounded by 30 other girls in black dreses and Russky chapeaus. What can I do to stand out from the crowd?

Dress up as Jane Fonda and quote from the 'Red Book'.

Dress up as a Marxist....Groucho Marx!

Ahhh that is funny - Jane Fonda - especially since my Name is Jane! But I don't look anything like her and no one would get it... sigh!

Yeah, dress up like the blond chick in Rocky 12 or what ever number it was. Russian boxers wife. Or you can go Mongolianish. More of a folk look.I don't know?Go as Fidel Castro?

Try these guys:

I don't know if they ship to Canada or not.

So, would this be called a... Communist Party?

Man, that was a terrible joke. Anyway, maybe you could get a male friend who is shorter than you and you could both go as Boris and Natasha Badenov from the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons. I can't really think of any other famous Soviet women. Maybe you could go as Lee Harvey Oswald's wife or that lady who slept with JFK.

I second the Natasha and Boris(maybe because my name is Natasha) but she wears a purple dress alot and black. Your husband could dress like Boris. Good luck and have fun.

I know it's too late to buy from ebay but maybe you know someone with one.
A russian amber necklace would be nice too.
I have all these things as I'm part Russian so you can borrow them if you can get to CA :)

I think this necklace is great and a conversation piece as well. Would be a pretty choker.

Wow - quite the deluge of suggestions! Though the necklaces and \shawl are gorgeous, I'm going for more of a campy russian look, not an authentic one.

I guess I'll stick with the fur hat... and maybe grow my armpit hair to match!

(waiting for the rotten tomatoes to fly...)

Hmmm...I don't know, but I guess you should make sure that it doesn't say "FREE Sample"!
