In Questionable Taste!

While advertising the upcoming social, I innocently suggested that dressing to the theme of ‘Questionable Taste’ was unlikely to permanently damage anyone’s reputation. The committee, I assured you, would go to great lengths to set a new standard for awful attire.

Little did I know that the society would take that as a challenge to produce some of the zaniest, most outrageous costumes ever seen on our dance floor. Along with the obligatory leopard print, the hall was bursting with enormous wigs, top-to-toe rainbows, awkward gym kit, and a few combinations that definitely made a getaway from the 70s. One day my eyes may recover from the multi-coloured onslaught, but it won't be any time soon.

The outfits set the tone for a crazy atmosphere. In amongst the boogies, foxtrots and waltzes, we tried out some salsa moves under the coloured lights, and even witnessed an impromptu macarena. Anyone who thinks ballroom dancers never let their hair down would’ve had their mind blown, to say the least.


If you missed out, never fear: our next social is on 25 March (the last day of term for us students) from 8 till midnight, so come along and dance away your stresses. Can’t stay for the whole evening? No problem – society members attend for free.

The theme is Mardi Gras, so grab some beads and get ready...

See you on the dance floor!

P.S. While dressing up is always a bonus, it’s not compulsory – the point of a social is to dance!
