Product Information

If you’re going for a full-on party theme, you want to give your guests a good amount of time to plan and get their outfits together. Around a month should do it for most themes. Indistinguishable from a real, naturally growing moustache, our Magnum, P.I. and other theatrical false moustaches are handmade for professional theatrical use on stage and screen, yet the price and ease of use allow them to be used for a multitude of private occasions, such as impressing your friends at fancy dress parties. If you’re debating whether or not to give your party a theme, I thought I’d put down my thoughts on why it is worthwhile spending time coming up with something really unique. 1. IT CREATES BUZZ Finding a party theme that nobody else you know has done before is a great way to make sure that your party stands out. So it might be worth taking note in the next story you read or the next show you watch to see how the detectives are dressed. There might be more to it than a statement of style.

Lucinda Hawksley’s new book Moustaches, Whiskers and Beards will be published by London’s National Portrait Gallery in October 2014. While Holmes is clearly identified—and never copied—in his iconic style, the hard-boiled look is more generic, more indicative of a detective character instead of an identity. To me, this is great. This means that the look and attitude of a detective is something that can be emulated by the masses. A few simple accessories can help set the tone and mood for an entire story. If you want to take your Halloween party to the next level, it is well worth giving it a theme. It’s also a great way of getting everyone to dress up because a general theme of ‘Halloween’ can sometimes be overwhelming. The only other thing to bear in mind before diving into the list of theme ideas is how much time you have ahead of your party.Throughout history facial hair has fallen in and out of fashion. Hairy faces have been lauded, derided, immortalised in art and even legislated against. The rise and curl of the moustache has never been straightforward. Whether you hire a party planner or make the party yourself, just because you’re grown-up doesn’t mean you can’t play dress-up! Professional actors and serious amateur dramatics enthusiasts put body and soul into their performances under the heat of the lights and often with fast-moving action. They need to be sure that their moustache will stay in place until they decide to remove it. A fedora, a trench coat, a hip flask, and a cigarette. These are the trappings of the American hard-boiled detective. Characters such as Sam Spade, Philip Marlowe, Mike Hammer, and Columbo firmly embed the picture of the grizzled detective into our minds.

Yep, move over, kids. It’s time for the grown-ups to have some theme party fun! If you have spent so long planning kids’ parties that you’ve run out of creativity for coming up with a party for you and your own friends, look no further. Magnum, P.I. debuted in 1980, a month after Ronald Reagan won the presidency. The economy was booming, and TV, which four years later would also include shows like Miami Vice, was a mirror for its time. Thomas Magnum was the perfect leading man to represent that early-’80s optimism. The dude was a war veteran and lived in Hawaii in a mansion—rent free!—on the condition that he did some private investigating every now and then. (Occasionally, he’d have to beg to use the wine cellar, but, you know, who hasn’t?) You can style this Magnum PI fake real hair moustache as if it were your own hair : comb and braid , or shape with a curling iron.But try not too dye this real hair beard and moustache too often , because the hair is attached to a synthetic net base that could melt if exposed to heat or tear if handled carelessly Ray-Ban aviators are still one of the most popular choices for name-brand sunglasses to tap into your Magnum P.I. game. With several designs, the “ Aviator Classic, ” created in 1937, is “a timeless model that combines great aviator styling with exceptional quality, performance, and comfort.”A party theme helps make all the different elements of the party come together. From the decorations and food to the activities and what everyone does and wears. It allows you to create an immersive experience for your guests. 3. IT’S MORE FUN!
