My husband and I have a lot of friends who do historical re-enactments and we went along to a 1940s-themed party in Shoreditch, London. It would have been more fun had people behaved less like debauched people from the noughties and more like people in the 1940s (i.e. My research and interviews with people who lived in the 1940s indicated that it would have been unheard of to litter every other word with an expletive). Anyway, it was fun to dress up.
