Look absolutely smashing for your next costume party or Halloween shindig. Yeah, baby, yeah!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Austin Powers Costumes
  • White Briefs
  • Curling Irons
  1. Step 1

    Survey the amount of hair on your chest. Hairy is ideal, though you may want to shave some off in an irresistibly phallic shape. If bare-chested, try penciling in chest hairs with eyeliner.

  2. Step 2

    Enhance shagadelic power with a male symbol pendant on a silver chain.

  3. Step 3

    Pull on tight briefs with a British flag emblazoned on the bottom.

  4. Step 4

    Button up a white shirt with long, lacy sleeves.

  5. Step 5

    Slip into velvet pants in either blue or red. Put on a matching blue or red velvet blazer.

  6. Step 6

    Tie a cravat around your neck so that it hangs over your blazer.

  7. Step 7

    Find fake, bad teeth to wear over your own. Put on black-rimmed glasses.

  8. Step 8

    Inspect your hair: Brown, overgrown and mop-like is best. Curl it slightly with a curling iron and brush it down, allowing bangs to cover most of your forehead.

  9. Step 9

    Consider purchasing a wig if your hair refuses to be coaxed into the Austin look.

Tips & Warnings
  • Smile and wink a lot.
  • Work into your vocabulary words like "randy," "groovy," "smashing" and "baby."
  • Concentrate on finding your next shag.
  • Convince your girlfriend to dress as Felicity Shagwell or a fembot (see Related eHows and Related Items). Keep asking her, "Do I make you horny, baby?"
  • If your local shops aren't groovy enough for your Austin Powers style, that's a drag, baby, but there's no reason to get uptight. There are plenty of shagadelic costumes and accessories right there under the Things You'll Need list, so just relax, order early and have a good time.
