I'd do it right without going over board. Dress appropriately for the venue and your age, just as has been said here many times and then have fun!!

I did exactly this last year for halloween. I went to a party and went all out. Just as you mentioned, forms, padded butt and hips, wig...everything. Was I trying to out myself? Not really, but I told myself that if anyone starts asking the 'right' questions, I wasn't going to lie about it. Whether or not anyone suspected something, nobody said anything. (maybe they were afraid to ask??)
Now the question is, should I do it again this year if they're having another party? Hmmm.....I guess I'll have to wait and see.
I say go all out. be who you were meant to be and what makes you comfortable
I say go all the way and just blow his mind out.
Go all out and take your friend as your date. Have fun with it.
Love,
Lexi V.
Dress to the nines, sweetie.
If they give you odd looks, just reply.. "What? I lost the bet, I'm just making good on it."
Nobody will ever give you that kind of bet (or take yours) ever again.

Go for middle of the road. You have the fun without the worry of outing yourself (unless you don't mind being outed.)
Years ago in the town I grew up in there was an electric utility company who held an annual charity fundraiser. All the male executives, managers, and other leaders had to participate in a womanless beauty contest to raise money for the charity of choice. They were assigned to a fellow female leader who would "own the charity girls" and was responsible for helping them dress/act to win. The other female employees would be recruited to help with dressing and coaching the charity girls. This drove the employee teams to compete for fund raising.
It was an elaborate affair and the "charity girls" were dressed, made up, and encouraged to be as genuinely en femme as possible as the more believable they were the more money they raised. There were talent contests where the charity girls would do baton twirling or cheerleading, fashion shows, and the like. Weeks before the show it was not uncommon to be downtown and encounter fully en femme dressed men panhandling for pre-show pledges. When the show date finally arrived, the audience was expected to pledge money to the teams based on their performance. The "show" was held at a local amphitheater and it was a much revered venue amongst the townspeople. It was always a packed house and I remember as a pre-teen watching it in absolute awe.
The fun finally ended when the age of sensitivity came about and someone filed a lawsuit against the power company for mocking a certain gender group. I now think back about that wondrous time, the show, the excitement and comedic thrill and the whole community gathering to enjoy cross-dressers on parade.
I'd do the very best you can do and just relax.
Have fun, Julie.
Sincerely,
Cheryl

I don't buy the bet scenario. That has been used here so many times.
Are you sure its not you trying to justify your dressing?
You can be honest here nobody is going to flame you for it we all understand.
Some of you seem skeptical about this bet idea. Apparently for some this is a well used technique, however, I was not aware of this, it is new to me. It is true the bet was rigged, I never intended to lose. In my situation I simply could not present myself in public en fem. I need a way, that some others would know about, for it to appear that I was "forced" to go out as a women. Particularly, given that it is October, for others the idea would not be to bizarre.
Yeah! I just remembered, I drew the short straw once and had to be the bride.
There were three others that wanted that straw too.
So did I lose the bet.
Julie,
Me? Skeptical?
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
If you wanted to go out enfemme you could have why does it take a bet to get you to do so?
A majority of us here did it with out a bet.
I never saw why people have to use a bet scenario to try to justify their desire to dress up and go out enfemme.
Just a thought, maybe totally wrong but I think that any friend that would pose this kind of bet is a secret closet crossdresser. I would ask your friend if he secretly wanted to lose the bet and tell him you should both get dressed up and go out. That way you both win.
I want to be this girl!
How lucky can a girl get? As for me, I only lose the lottery. I have no luck at all.
After searching my lingerie drawers, I have come to the conclusion that they lied. Ruffles don't have ridges. At least mine don't.
How did you get yourself into a bet like that? Are you trying to find a way to come out to your circle of friends?
The issue with a bet like this is that it may force you to be out in pubic with someone who thinks that a male being en femme is the ultimate humiliation.
If you're too good at it it may out you. If you aren't good at it you'll be ridiculed.
I'd much rather be out with people who are true friends who accept me as I am.

Too many red flags for me.
In a situation like that, you'd probably be accompanied by the '' winner'' who would be taking pictures of the event to prove that you held up your end of the deal. It might behoove you to have a photog accompany you, although it would definitely draw attention to you, which may or may not be what you want. I'm just sayin'.............

"anything worth doing is worth doing well!" as you stand tall in your heels. You could initially look a little unstable in your heels,too.
Take it and RUN with it...just don't stumble in your heels...
In this circumstance, I would probably chicken out and play it out like this poor lad I saw on facebook
