BYT Empire

Brightest Young Things


Where are you going to be on October 28th, 2011?  Well, if you're smart, you're planning on heading over to NIGHT AT THE NEWSEUM IV (IN 3D!!!) which promises to be the spookiest, awesomenest, best Halloween party (so you should wear your GOOD costume) in town. For real. Don't believe me?

Here's just a SAMPLE of what's in store:

  • All the fun you've come to love and expect from one, two, three BYT Presents @ the Newseum parties
  • DJ Questlove!!
  • DJ Woolfy (DFA) on the 6th floor terrace!
  • Exclusive after-hours access to the Newseum -- a dazzling, high-tech roller-coaster ride through 500 years of headline history including Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalism, the Berlin Wall and exciting galleries, theaters and interactives
  • Free 3D glasses for everybody to view our giant 40ft original 3D animation / or just to walk around and look cool in
  • Drinks and food available for purchase - all provided by Wolfgang Puck Catering - with bars located on the 1st, 2nd & 6th floors + the concourse. Yay for bars!
  • Ride the Stella-vator to the 6th floor terrace! (we even put bars in the elevators)
  • Live Thriller reenactment by the Culture Shock dance crew (whaaaat??)
  • Ping Pong tables provided by Joola - win prizes in the tournament or just play for fun!
  • All guests will get a discount coupon for another visit to the Newseum
  • A Halloween photobooth to show off in!
  • + so much more that we're keeping it a surprise (but I can say this: IT'LL BE AMAAAAAAAAAAZING)

So what are you waiting for? A chance to win tickets? Well fine.  Here it is.  Your moment of free-loadin' zen. TO WIN: Show/Tell me what costume Svetlana should wear this Halloween (see above for a lovely Svetlana-esque picture for more guidance). Now be classy about this people... Svetlana is one of the best humans I know.  Personally, I think all she needs is a blonde wig and that blue dress -- and bam, Vanna White!  Winner will be selected by next Friday, so use a real email address when you comment.

God loves a cheerful giver.

Svetlana should go as Bjork! She's just as beautiful and could totally rock the infamous old school swan dress.

Not a lot of good pop culture references out there this time of year, so how about something classic? Girl's a cutie and would look great as Little Red Riding Hood. Red cape, lots of opportunities for accessories if you wanted to be a bit edgier, and a basket stock full of goodies (to hand out to random party goers?). If she wanted to expand into a couple's costume, bring a wolf along.

Or, if you've got a nice gingham dress and some killer red hills, Dorothy from Oz is always a classic.

I am REALLY feeling the russian name, so I am hoping there is a russian accent to accompany that. If not, I know for a fact they kick in after your 6th shot of vodka. Russian villians are also badasses and perfect for halloween. My initial thought was go Bond, maybe Rosa Klebb, the one that got away? NO, too sexual? Ehh.. Xenia Onatopp... WAY TO SEXUAL... but the 6 shots GO with that ya know? LETS GET AWAY FROM BOND.. Austin Powers, that one from 3rd Rock, meh...

I have a confession, I am in russia drinking vodka rigth now.

You know who is a SICK villain, but not a Bond slut? (if thats what you are going for)... NATASCHA from Rocky and Bullwinkle... youtube it... its flawless.

NO, no, no - her coloring is perfect to wear red, so: Carmen Sandiego. Red trench over some awesome dress, shouldn't be hard to find. The huge-brimmed red hat, a harder find, but still doable in two weeks.

Or: Mary Poppins. Practically perfect in EVERY.WAY.

Go as a bottle of stolichnaya vodka (white gloves, hat in shape of bottle top, brand on chest etc.) like cigarette girl outfit.. But make it a bikini so she can actually move on the dancefloor.

She should go as a giant newspaper, since it's the Newseum and she's apart of the media.

Kathy Beth Terry. Haven't you seen the Katy Perry music video for Last Friday Night? It's Katy Perry's alter ego?

You can choose one outfit, or change in the middle of the night!

1. Dorky Kathy Beth Terry:
Acid wash overalls, pink shirt, pig-tail braids, nerd glasses, and fake braces/head gear.

2. Party-fied Kathy Beth Terry:
Spandex green and pink dress/top, crazy curly perm, and the same fake braces/head gear.

I mean, the song title, music video, and outfit are a perfect compliment to the night!

Quorra from Tron Legacy, with Neon Wire added to the costume so she can light up and be bright like in the movies! She could also dress up as 3D glasses (the classic ones-one red and one blue frame). This sticks to the theme of the night, plus it uses Serbia's (and America's) colors!face-smile You can also trim the glass frames in neon wire, because who doesn't love things that glow?
