Leg Avenue are renowned for their innovative and market leading designs when it comes to sexy fancy dress costumes and the fashionable brand has just released their new collection for 2011.

The new costumes encompass fashion, fantasy and comfort and cover a range of categories including storybook, decades, celebrities, heroes, uniforms and the ever popular pirates. A total of 75 new fancy dress outfits have been added to the collection and here I forecast the top 5 for 2011.

Tea Time Alice Costume

A new version of the Alice In wonderland character costume and as pretty as they come. Lewis Carroll’s character is an eternally popular choice for fancy dress parties as it is adaptable for an array of themes. The new Tea Time Alice costume features a satin apron dress with adorable teapot motif, sheer puff sleeves and high neck. This costume is significantly longer than other sexy fancy dress versions, yet maintains the fashion element and sex appeal ensuring that this will be a popular choice.

Ship Shape Captain Costume

The sailor fancy dress theme is probably the most popular, particularly in the summer months. The Ship Shape Captain costume is easily identifiable, cute and sexy featuring a navy dress with ribbon trim and pleated skirt. The matching shrug with military style epaulettes is ideal for covering the sometimes problematic top arm area and acts as a replacement jacket that just happens to co-ordinate with the outfit. A certain best seller.

Cheeky Brit Costume

The Cheeky Brit costume will be a popular choice for a variety of occasions and celebrations in 2011. The three piece sexy fancy dress costume includes mini dress with British Flag design, matching panties and retro style headband. With the eyes of the world on the UK for the Royal Wedding and an extra bank holiday in celebration of the nuptials, the streets are expected to be swamped with parties, flag bunting and national tributes. Several important sporting fixtures and the upcoming Olympics will see the British flag on display more than ever and this costume is sure to feature.

The 80’s fancy dress theme continues to be an extremely popular choice with event and party organisers and Leg Avenue have added an 80’s twist to this design, making it a certain best seller for a variety of themes.

Lightening Rocker Costume

Lady Gaga inspired sexy fancy dress costume, sure to be an instant hit, features black asymmetrical bodysuit with lace sleeve and skirt, lightening belt and matching gauntlet glove. The world has gone Gaga mad with young, old, straight, gay, men and women embracing her edgy, vibrant and unquestionably unique dress sense. A popular character choice for celebrity, pop, icon, Halloween and New Year parties the new Lightening Rocker costume will likely sell at lightening speed. Leg Avenue have also designed a matching hair-bow headband, inspired by the now famous creation worn early on in the singer’s career. Added as an accessory to the costume, ensures that there will be no confusion as to who the wearer is impersonating.

Pretty Pink Costume

Burlesque has exploded into the mainstream and is more popular than ever in the UK. With exotic performers such as Immodesty Blaize delighting in super feminine and glittery ensembles, many are looking to emulate the show-girl look and the Burlesque theme is popping up time and time again for sexy fancy dress parties. The Pretty Pink costume features layered ruffle halter dress with satin bow accents, removable back ruffle and traditional feather headpiece. With it’s contoured fit and oodles of pink ruffles, this is as close to an authentic burlesque custom made costume we have seen in the sexy fancy dress industry.
