Okay, so Con.txt is this upcoming weekend already. And I'm going, probably by way of the metro, which means I'll be hauling a huge backpack around all day, with a Gryffindor logo on it, if anyone wants to find me. (How so soon? Ahh!) And on Friday night there's a theme dance, theme: the 70s. And I can't decide between two outfits. Help?
Exhibit A: The dress that's actually a few years too old to be the 1970s, but I really want an excuse to wear it in public while it still fits me like a glove.
Exhibit B: The dress that *is* from the 1970s. 1976, to be exact. And is very very fun to wear and dance in.
They're neither of them in terribly good condition and require some seam-reinforcing and ironing if I'm going to wear them for more than just dress-up clothes. Mom has also repeatedly tried to give me a "hand-crocheted vest and miniskirt set, you can't get more 70s than that, you could even wear the clown shirt with it!" Which, just. Um.

... you could still do it and send it to me, though!

It might be all from S2, so I won't have to rip anything.

Assuming it's still on - I can't find it in the panel schedule yet - it'll be an hour-long session for anyone who wants to go up and talk and show off; for an A/V aid - it could be set to music or it could be just clips, or even a PowerPoint with screencaps, I presume. But don't make it any longer than a short vid, I'd say.
E-mail me or link me something by Thursday and I'll slap together CDs or handouts to go with! Otherwise I may just hang out, and go up and babble about DENNY CRANE if it gets quiet. (Not that I won't be doing that anyway...)

It's #1 - the mandarin-esque black one with the jacket - that I know nothing about. I'm pretty sure it was bought off-the-rack sometime around 1966, but there's no tag or marking of any kind that I can find.
