Answer 1

How cool! This is going to be a really fun party if you get this outfit right. Ok, first of all, think classic glamour. Metallic shoes, sliver accents, shadowy makeup, red lipstick, all out of the movies. Black or white, the dress can be either. I personally prefer the white, because there is so much room to glam it up. Load your neck with necklaces, and the classic kind. Thin chains, pearls, just pile them on. Or, if you have one, long, chunky pearl necklace, that will do. However, the first option is a little more showy, which is good. If the dress is long, wear very high high heels, in metallic sliver. Everything you wear should either be sliver or white basically, unless you're going with the accent with black look. This is a risky idea, but when pulled off the result is stunning. Buy a black belt, a thick, chunky one, but one that doesnt look very modern in style. Just a black belt, but on the chunky side. Wear this either very loose, or very tight, no normal. For shoes, you can play it safe and wear a pair of classic black strappy heels, or you can take a gamble and wear a pair of ultra low rise ankle black boots. This is, of course, only if your dress is shorter than the shin. Wear very obvious black earings (chandelier, or thick hoop). Around your neck, either pile on the black, or, for glamours sake, wear a single thick black choker paired with a black one. Make sure the black one is closer to the dress though. If you have one, a black velvet shrug wuold look great, though that may be taking it too far. Have fun at your party, and if you choose not to take the black and white option, simply remove the belt and replace all black with silver.
Enjoy!

Answer 2

James Bond costumes often reflect the time period they were set in. So watch one of the movies for inspiration, and maybe take one of the themes of your favourite Bond film to create the costume.

Answer 3

cool! well, naturally you should refer to what the girls in the movies wear. however, try not to copy them exactly, just follow the 'style' of the dresses. well, as to 'glam white dress'...those bond girls were certainly very glamorous. (:

Answer 4

Well seeing its tonite, i suppose i would be a bit late to suggest something, but if your going late, heres the suggestion, a black dress or very elegant dress

Answer 5

very good idea, being glam means that it will completely span all of the movies anyway, have a good time!
