Dressing up for a "White Trash/Redneck" party

in Help / Advice Forum
My friends are throwing a White Trash/Redneck theme party this weekend, and I figured I'd check to see if anyone had any suggestions for my outfit.

Currently I plan on wearing a pair of Carhart Overalls and a flannel/hickory shirt, with a big wad of gum inside my lip to look like chew.

Any further ideas/suggestions?

    First thing is you need to be filthy, unshaven, bad hair, wife beater, cuttoff jean shorts, flip flops, american flag tattoo, and some sort of barbed wire/tribal tattoo around your bicep. If you're fat the wife beater should be two sizes too small.

    Oh, and walking around with a can of Natty Ice.

    As a wrestling fan I feel I can say this.

    A wrestling shirt. Preferibly an outdated one.

    Yea you need to go with cutoff denim shorts, mullet wig, trucker cap, pillow under a dirty Budweiser shirt that has the sleeves cutoff.



    And a bandana worn any where, preferably a confederate flag one.

    Also: product placement. People should be able to discern your favorite product by looking at you in at least some of the following categories: beer, cigarettes, sports teams, restaurants, and of course, NASCAR driver (and the some of the various products that sponsor him).

    Where is this going to be? It's all fun and games until someone busts out the Confederate flag and all the pictures wind up on Facebook. Try to be a classy redneck =P.

    That is why I had planned on going the more construction worker redneck. Some great tips guys, thanks!

    If you wear a flannel shirt, it should have the sleeves torn off. Also, you need to have something with a nascar logo on your person.

    A flannel shirt and overalls is just a guy that works for a living.

    Yeah, seriously, a Southern manual laborer does not equal redneck.

    My thought was that the OP does not realize how expensive a pair of Carhart overalls would be either. Unless he gets them used or gets the denim kind they run around $70. They're serious work clothes so they're not cheap.

    I work construction and thus have a half dozen pair on hand in various states of wear :P

    Denim cutoff shorts are a must. Grab a terrible looking pair of jeans from Good Will and tear off the legs.

    You're confusing hillbilly and redneck here. Rednecks are not quite as rural as hillbillies.

    Another direction the OP could try is a denim jacket plus jeans with the colors so close it looks like a jump suit.

    That's hipster/scenester.

    EDIT: Denim Warrior as I like to call that combination.

    Pretty sure no one is going to be like: "OMG you're a hillbilly and not a redneck! How pathetic!"

    If you can get a mullet then you'll be set.

    T shirt with a pack of cigarettes rolled into the sleeve. A trucker cap with motor oil on it. Mullet, definitely a mullet.
