Invitations

For a dress up birthday party teeming with glamorous guests, consider one of these invitation ideas.

• Design a press release. "Don't miss the action! Premier gala event to take place at (location) for (name)'s birthday party! Be backstage by (time) on (date). Dress stunningly! By invitation only!"
• Perhaps a formal invitation is in order? "Please join us for the occasion of (name)'s (age) birthday party. Location: (address). Time: (time). Date: (date). Please wear formal attire. Attendance by invitation only."
• Alternatively, try this one: "Get ready to rock the runway! We're throwing a fashion show in honor of (name), so wear your most smokin' gear for your time in the spotlight!" Add event details: date, time, and location.

Decorations

Fashion party guests will feel like Hollywood royalty when they are greeted with a red carpet outside! Lead them right up to the door. Place a strobe light at the entry to mimic the flash of cameras as they enter the glamour of this exclusive dress up birthday party event!

Inside, let a runway take center stage. Use a line of disposable table cloths or a sheet if you have one. Alternatively, mark the runway edges by a rope made of streamers or balloons. Line the walkway at ground level with yellow or white balloons to create the illusion of a line of lights.

Create a balloon archway at the start of the runway, using pink, purple, or white to match the dress up birthday party theme décor. Hang at least two sheets or plastic tablecloths behind the archway to create a curtain for each girl's dramatic entrance.

Over the runway setup, hang a Fashion Angels personalized birthday banner. It's the premier way to make the birthday girl the star of this teen fashion party!

Set up several small tables throughout the rest of the room. Each will serve multiple purposes, including acting as the "backstage" area, dining tables, and as preferred seating when the show begins. Cover each one with a flowing pink tablecover and surround it with two or three chairs.

For "backstage" at your teen girl birthday event, use the tables for hair, nails, and makeup. Set up plenty of mirror so the girls can fix one another up. When it's time for the show, the audience can sit at the tables just as they do for real runway fashion shows. Finally, when it's time for dinner service, seat guests at these tables, restaurant-style.

To set the table, use place settings from the Fashion Angels deluxe pack. Use the included table cloth and centerpiece on a main buffet table, while the smaller tables serve as dining tables. The set comes with service for eight guests, including place mats, cups, napkins, plates, and cutlery. Supplies are available for additional guests.

You can't overdo it when it comes to streamers, balloons, and confetti at a gala event, so use them liberally all over the room. These festive touches are easy, inexpensive ways to amp up the party atmosphere.

Dress Up Birthday Party Costumes

For a great fashion show, have plenty of outfits on hand for the girls to change in to. If you have one, a clothing rack is a real back-stage accessory and the perfect place to hang extra clothes. (If not, make one with a rope and a couple of chairs or pile clothes on a table).

Invite the girls to bring extra outfits to share, or raid your own closet. Alternatively, you can head to the thrift store. It is the ideal place to obtain inexpensive clothing – oftentimes very expensive, high end outfits which are sure to delight your guests! Complete your collection of fashionable girls' teenage party ideas with plenty of shoes and other accessories. Hats, sunglasses, feather boas, and costume jewelry are all essential to a walk down the runway.

Food

Try one of these beverages for your dress up birthday party.

• Serve sparkling grape juice in High Heel boot cups for a funky touch.
• They may think they're ready for cappuccino, but try this look-a-like instead. Blend chocolate milk and cream until frothy, then pour into glasses and top with whipped cream.
• Delightfully exotic mango shakes are easy to prepare. Blend fresh mango with ice cream until smooth, then add milk to get the desired consistency.

Dish some of this elegant fare for a meal worthy of any fashionista!

• Fruit tray – Cut up strawberries, melons, and apples. Serve with cream cheese dip or melted chocolate.
• Finger sandwiches – Make sandwiches of choice then carefully cut off the crust. Cut the remaining square into four smaller squares or four triangles.
• Veggie tray – Serve cut veggies with a creamy ranch dip.
• White pizza – White pizza is an elegant alternative to traditional versions, so carve up a store bought pie into finger slices, or order one hot and fresh for delivery.

• Serve an elegant dessert by generously icing cake with cream cheese frosting. Garnish with fresh fruits such as strawberries or cut melons.
• Serve up fashion at your dress up birthday party! Bake a sheet cake and cut it slightly to resemble the shape of shirt or dress. Decorate in your favorite colors for an edible fashion plate!
• Bake two round cakes and place them side by side. Decorate to look like sunglasses. Be creative! The shades don't have to be black. Consider using bright pink for the rims and a subdued pink for the lenses.
