Freshers' week fancy dress – share your photos and videos

If you’re a fan of dressing up like a Disney character or wearing a bed sheet as a toga, then you'll be enjoying freshers' week.

Whether it’s a costume you rented, or an outfit you pulled together at the last minute using a pair of tights, some safety pins and a glue stick – we want to see. Dressing to a theme can prove expensive, so what creative ways have you come up with to make an outfit on a budget? Or did you decide to go all out and buy that giraffe onesie?

Show us your fancy dress photos, or perhaps a short video of you as a dancing pirate. (If you’re sharing a video, please remember that for copyright reasons we can’t put up any videos that include music, unless you own the copyright.)

If you made the costume yourself, let us know how you made it and how much it cost you. We will feature the best in a gallery on the Guardian Students site.
