How to put together a colour day outfit

Check which colour your child or team has been given, then build from the head down. Start with a plain T-shirt or singlet in the colour, add one bright piece for the head such as a wig, bandana or hair bands, then finish the legs with coloured stockings or socks. A bow tie or party glasses in the same shade adds a finishing touch. For a house or team colour with two shades, split them top and bottom so both show from a distance. Yellow teams can go all in with the yellow wizard look, and neon colours suit an 80s theme. If you use coloured hair spray, do a test patch and follow the packet directions.
