Thanks to the charming and talented NKGuy who ran a photo studio to capture these arresting images of partygoers at White Mischief – including the cover shot used to mark this post.

SUPPORT THE ARTISTS AND CRAFTISTS

In addition to the many live bands and performers we are for the first time hosting a number of stalls featuring art, design, craft and objets d’art from the nation’s finest steampunk artists. There’s even a luxury chocolate stand from The Clockwork Quartet. There is a cash machine in the building, though we advise you to bring change so that you can support these fabulous artists by buying their remarkable work.

PHOTOGRAPHY / VIDEOGRAPHY

We support photographers’ right to document the event as a form of artistic expression; however please do this with the utmost respect for other partygoers and always ask permission before photographing someone. These days even your mobile phone can deliver photos and videos direct to Flickr, Facebook and YouTube. Please be sure to tag all photos you upload to these sites with the word whitemischief so that they show up automatically on our site and can be found easily by other partygoers. Note that we have a specific request from the act Voltini, who asks that you use absolutely no flash or lighting during his act whatosever, and that there must be no photography or filming of any scene involving naked flesh. Please respect our artists’ wishes. Also please note that the BBC will be filming a segment during the party; if you do not wish to be featured please let one of their team members know.

CLOAKROOM / VENUE ADDRESS

Yes, there will be a cloakroom. It is operated by the venue, Scala. Incidentally Scala is at 275 Pentonville Road, King’s Cross, London N1.

PERFORMERS / ARTISTS TAKING PART
Saturday’s party features dozens of artists including astounding live bands on and off stage, mind-blowing cabaret acts,  themed rooms, DJs and walkabout characters. For the full list visit our event page or RSVP on the Facebook event. To read about the steampunk art and craft that will be for sale, read our list of steampunk artists.

A NOTE ABOUT DRESSUP

Dressing up is not compulsory at White Mischief but we encourage guests to enter into the spirit of things and express themselves – we’ve had everything from panda outfits to lampshades to flocks of birds to dinner jackets, ballgowns, even the occasional guest in t-shirt and jeans. To help you decide on a look we’ve created this list of dressup inspirations as well as compiling a guide to London’s best vintage, second-hand, costume, hair and makeup suppliers.

But our favourite is Prangsta, the bespoke costumier in New Cross whose incredible outfits leave the concept of fancy dress in the dirt! They’re offering White Mischief guests a 20% discount and they’re open on Saturday from 11am to 7pm!

JUST A FEW PLACES LEFT… BOOK IN ADVANCE

Nearly 90% of the available tickets have been sold, including all the VIP tickets and all the group discounts. If you’re thinking of coming please do book in advance…we will have a limited stock of tickets on the door but they will be more expensive at £25.

Please call ahead before you visit as some locations are not open on weekends or on certain days.

Costume hire

Prangsta 304 New Cross Rd, SE14 (020) 8694 9869 New Cross Gate tube

UPDATE: We are proud to announce that Prangsta is our preferred costume rental company. If you’re going to a White Mischief party and can quote White Mischief you will gain a 20% discount from Prangsta – and read our full article about Prangsta first!

Leading costumier to the vaudeville scene, with an exquisite eye for turning discarded clothes into sumptuous outfits from all eras. Melanie from Prangsta has already kitted a out a few Mischief Makers in superlative Victorian/Steampunk garb and is guaranteed to find the perfect combination of costume and accessories to make your fantasy a reality. Check out the gallery for a few examples of Prangsta’s stunning work.

National Theatre Costume Hire Store 1-3 Brixton Rd, SW9 [directions] (020) 7735 4774 Oval tube

In terms of sheer scale it’s hard to beat the NT, which holds an archive of costumes from productions gone by. Peasants, 18th century ladies, animal costumes, knights, Classical masks… even the entire cast of Wind in the Willows is to be found here. The NT will let you return as often as you like to try on different combinations, then there’s a fee for the costume as a whole, which can be hired for a week.

The Costume Studio 159 Balls Pond Road, N1 (020) 7923 9472 Dalston train

Aiming itself towards the film and TV industry, the Costume Studio nonetheless does supply outfits to members of the public, and the results are impressive if a little on the expensive side.

Angels 119 Shaftesbury Avenue, WC2 (020) 7836 5678 Leicester Square tube

Originally a film costumier, Angels has hit the headlines auctioning off items like cloaks from the original Star Wars films. They sell costumes from their website, but Angels’ West End branch is the place to go for your high-end, fancy dress fix.

Mad World 69-85 Tabernacle St, EC2 (0800) 783 6582 Old Street tube

More a conventional fancy dress location, but fairly well-stocked with Victorian and Edwardian looks, plus it’s the favoured fancy dress outlet of the Hoxton massive.

Craftspersons specialising in steampunk and neo-Victoriana

Amanda Scrivener and Thomas Willeford

Amanda Scrivener is a clothing and jewellery designer whose work defies easy definition. After attending two art colleges to study textiles, jewellery design and jewellery production, Amanda’s work became inspired by the shadowy side of Victorian England. As her creator persona, Professor Maelstromme, she crafts items in her laboratory which will bring to mind romance by gaslight, arcane science, the steam age, carnival sideshow curios and aged materials from the tombs of Victorian England.

Amanda is engaged to Thomas Willeford of Brute Force Studios, who is famous in his own right for his abilities as a corset maker, leather worker,  and creator of infernal devices. Creations from both artists are available from Thomas’s website www.bruteforcestudios.com. and Amanda’s Esty site ProfMaelstromme.etsy.com

Firecat Masquerade contact dom.flannelcat@gmail.com

A collective of artists led by Dominic Flannelcat who alongside performance also create beautiful bespoke masks and steampunk goggles. The steampunk goggles take around a fortnight to create, but White Mischief fans who get in touch in time can benefit from a £5 discount on the goggles.

Shops offering both retail and hire

Blackout II 51 Endell Street WC2 (020) 7240 5006 Covent Garden, Tottenham Court Rd tubes

Vintage emporium Beyond Retro’s flagship East London warehouse is a feast of second-hand clothes from the conventional (and affordable) to the wild and daring, plus a ton of accessories from hats to sunglasses. There’s a smaller offshoot in the centre of London.

Radio Days 87 Lower Marsh SE1 (020) 7928 0900 Waterloo tube

Unusually, Radio Days has a remarkable collection of vintage menswear as well as the expected Aladdin’s Cave of ladies’ retro items. Plus vintage furniture, magazines and more: a real gem.

What The Butler Wore 131 Lower Marsh Terrace SE1 (020) 7261 1353 Waterloo tube

Once you’re done with Radio Days, pop in to What The Butler Wore. No butler suits here and only a handful of mens’ shirts/jumpers. But a fair selection of more recent vintage for women.

Alfie’s Antique Market 13-25 Church Street, NW8 [directions] (02o) 7223 6066

Take a visit to Alfie’s for several exceptional retailers of vintage clothes par excellence (with a strong leaning towards ladies’ clothes – gentlemen will find some items but not a great deal.)

We’ve long recommended Prangsta in our extensive list of costumiers and vintage retailers. Now we’re proud to announce that Prangsta is White Mischief’s preferred rental costumier, offering a 20% discount for White Mischief fans.

We have yet to discover a costume rental company whose outfits are as sumptuous, nor have we found a shop who will spend so much time personalising an outfit to the customer’s precise needs. This isn’t fancy dress, this is make-believe on a grand scale.

Read on for more pictures, contacts and all the detail about the outfitters of your dreams…

Prangsta caters both to men and to women and if you’re going to a White Mischief show, quote our name to gain a 20% discount on your Prangsta costume rental. They have more than enough to fulfil your every neo-Victorian, steampunk or Belle Epoque fantasy, plus every kind of uniform and accessory you care to imagine.

Prangsta is at 304 New Cross Road, London SE14 6AF, 020 8694 9869, open Monday to Saturday 11am-7pm.

A theatre torn asunder, stripped of its contents ..fantasy books rifled through and faery forests pilfered of their scenery. The pirate seas ripped up and placed in massive mahogany chests of drawers. Prangsta grins, she has taken it all!!!

The scenery shimmers, not all is as it seems.
Prangsta is an open book, beloved of many a stylist
Prangsta is a creative coven, full of characters
Prangsta is a treasure trove, spilling with ideas
Prangsta is covered in gold and glitter, the SHOW WILL GO ON!

The doors open to reveal….

Shelves laden with top hats, walls aching with wanton show girl costumes, Venetian masks, pearly strands, debauched photographs, a ceiling laden with heavy chandeliers. Dickensian ensembles pinned high up on the walls. The mannequin throws your a sultry stare as you enter, she is garbed in molten silver beads, painted as a Harlequin clown, she spins a roulette wheel…

Who will you be tonight? A harlot? A vagabond? A pirate? An angel? A dandy? A clown? Oh, Mr Darcy there you are!!

Founded in 1998 by St Martin’s fashion graduate Melanie Wilson; ingenious and eccentric; Prangsta is a butterfly beating its wings against the spectral, slavish fashion industry.

Each piece in our fashion line is lovingly crafted. Prangsta recycles the remnants of vintage fabrics, stitching rags back together with a modern twist – turning them into resplendent costumes rich with detail and perfectly fitted.

Multi-faceted: as a Costumiers, as Independent Designers, as Interior Decorators, a Dressmaking Class, an Entertainment Agency, a Film and Video location and asPrangsta Boudoir: staged at many a festival and event including Bloomsbury Ballroom, La Rivoli, Secret Garden Party, Sunrise, Camp Bestival and Bestival.

Prangsta costumes are art pieces, the heritage of days when people paid to know the provenance of their clothes. Prangsta has a studio in Deptford where these chaotic dreams are actualised and a shop in New Cross.

We’re offering a limited number of VIP tickets for our “Great Exhibition” party on Saturday March 27.

22nd March: VIP room now completely sold out! However, the “two parties one ticket” and regular tickets are still available.

Not only do the VIP tickets get you a whole host of advantages at Scala, they also get you in to another party – our “White Mischief Revue” at Proud Cabaret on Friday March 26 – for free.

If you’d rather not spend too much time on your feet and like the idea of being able to find a seat easily; if you’re prone to getting hot under the collar and you’d like a restful spot in which to cool down; if you prefer quick access to the booze or if you’re just a snooty type who doesn’t like mingling with the rest of us, the VIP room is for you.

VIP tickets get you into the private glass bar, with the following advantages:

• A dedicated private bar
• Air conditioning
• A view over the main stage
• Access to the private balcony over the main stage
• Plentiful seating
• Limited capacity only for VIPs

Plus! Free entry to the White Mischief Revue at Proud Cabaret, Friday March 26

• All VIP ticketholders are automatically placed on the guestlist for the White Mischief Revue on Friday March 26
• These are show-only tickets worth £10 on their own

VIP ticketbuyers can exchange their ticket for a VIP pass on the door. We will be limiting access to the room so that only VIP pass holders can gain entry. We will be selling significantly fewer VIP tickets than the room’s legal capacity, so you can be absolutely sure that buying VIP tickets will secure you a peaceful refuge, an enclave of calm, as well as a perfect spot from which to view the acts.

This is the ideal way to treat your loved one or to celebrate a birthday. Indeed, if you have a group we are offering group discounts on large batches of VIP tickets, so by all means contact us if you would like to order a group of VIP places. Or to book direct, visit our ticket booking page

Note that the VIP tickets are limited and have sold out early at all previous events.

(UPDATE 22nd March: VIP tickets have now sold out)
