Check out Venetian masks, the Harlequin ones are pretty cool (well as far as masks go) or the ones with the comedy noses always get a laugh.

The "long nose" mask was introduced in the 16th century by a doctor who thought it would prevent him getting the plague, I think it's known as the Medico della Peste - don't wear it!

If you're based in London there's a fantastic shop in Camden that will give you very high quality Venetian ball masques. It's just near Gilgamesh in the Stables. I still have mine sitting here near the altar.
