We love a good fancy dress party, here at heat towers. Might have something to do with having a cupbard full of props from past heat shoots...

We're not the only ones who revel in a bit of costume fun. The cast of TOWIE celebrated Joey Essex's birthday with a giant 80s-themed birthday party the other eveing, going all out for a real retro vibe.

Chloe looked like she had taken inspiration from early Madonna rocking lace leggings a rara skirt and a pretty spesh 80s wig.

Pal Lauren opted for a more fluoro look in shredded leggings, leg warmers and a leotard.

Miss Goddger obvs keen to show off her new bod, going out in what looked like a swimsuit covered with a sheer frock. . It's certainly one way to capture the attention of the guests...

Arg's lady-friend didn't look particularly retro to us. Gemma did look very happy, however, in her ruched LBD and silver wedges

Did someone asay 118-118? Is it just us or does Arg look a bit shattered? Maybe Gemma has been keeping him from his beauty sleep...

We can totally see what Lyds was aiming for with her super-tight disco pants and heels but the scare-factor of that crotch is just too much for us. We think we can see actual vagine...

That's what we like to see! Billie jumped fully into the fancy dress pool going for that much-loved aerobic instructor look. Beverley Callard would be proud

The birthday boy arrived for his special bash looking suitably 80s in teeny-tiny printed shorts

Aah, an Essex party wouldn't be a party without a sexy costume. Sam swapped her day look for a sexxxy Ghostbuster's outfit

Bless Ricky, he's done a proper job with his fancy dress, hasn't he? His girlfriend Jess also chose a pretty good vintage look with her rara skirt adn neon lippy.
