VE Day 80 Celebrations

Step Back in Time: Celebrate VE Day 80 in Style

Attention, Ruyton XI Towns community! Get ready to roll back the clock to the 1940s and relive the spirit of camaraderie, resilience, and celebration as we come together for our VE Day 80 Celebrations on Monday, 5th May.

This is a day to honour the remarkable sacrifices and triumphs of those who came before us, and what better way to do that than by immersing ourselves in the era that defined a generation? Whether you want to step out in 1940s attire or proudly don the Union Jack in red, white, and blue, we invite everyone to get into the celebratory spirit and make this day a visual spectacle of unity an1940s Fashion Inspiration

Dust off your vintage hats, high-waisted trousers, tea dresses, and victory rolls! The 1940s were an iconic time for fashion, characterised by elegance and practicality. Channel the wartime heroes, swing dancers, or post-war revelers as you embrace this nostalgic dress code.

Proudly British: Red, White, and Blue
Prefer a simpler yet patriotic touch? Don your brightest reds, purest whites, and boldest blues! Together, we can paint the village in a sea of national pride that echoes the celebrations of VE Day in 1945.

So, rummage through your wardrobes, visit local charity shops for inspiration, visit the official VE Day 80 shop or get creative with your own DIY twist. Whether you channel the 1940s or opt for a patriotic flair, we can’t wait to see your outfits on the day!

Let’s make VE Day 80 a celebration to remember. See you on Monday, 5th May, in your fabulous ensembles!

Together, we celebrate. Together, we remember. Together, we shine. 🇬🇧✨
