Dressing Up on Sunday

My passing reference to the Wonderland Ballroom's annual Sundress Festival in yesterday's Got Plans? seems to have stirred up a lot of interest, so I wanted to provide more details for anyone interested in dressing up for drink specials on Sunday night.

I should be clear from the start that this is an equal-opportunity event, with women in breezy, patterned summer dresses joining, er, men in breezy, patterned summer dresses on the patio and at the bar. Anyone who wears a sundress gets extended happy hour deals from 5 to close, which means $2 off draft beers, $3 rail drinks and $6 bottles of Delirium Tremens.

Guys, if you don't have a sundress, or your girlfriend's/best friend's/significant other's won't fit, the bar has some "loaners" for the evening that you can throw on over a t-shirt and jeans.

Photos from last year's festivities can be found on the Wonderland Ballroom's MySpace page, though you need to log in to see them.

Oh, and don't forget: Kostume Karaoke starts at 9 p.m. upstairs. Sundresses + Delirium Tremens + ridiculous karaoke props = fun.
