The most popular roaring 20s costumes for women are of course the ritzy Flapper dresses. These sexy “New Woman” flappers of the 1920s hitched up their skirts, flaunted stylish bobbed haircuts with feathered headbands, draped long feather boas and pearls around their necks, they drank, they smoked and they got a little bit ‘naughty’ with creative lingo of the times. With plenty of cash and new inventions such as washing machines and vacuum cleaners, women had more time to turn up their new radios and hit the dance halls to Charleston the night away!
Roaring 20's costumes for men reflect the gangster style which flourished among mobs and businesses through the ban on alcohol and illegal bootlegging. Suave looking gangster costumes, just like Al Capone (the most famous gangster of all time) will take you on a trip back to the underground liquor trade in Speakeasies. Grab your gangster suits, moustaches, cigars, ties, suspenders and fedora hats to pull off these nostalgic men’s roaring 20s costumes.
Movie and tv themed fancy dress parties are also fabulous for showing off your roaring 20s costumes. The 1920s were predominant in films such as Bazz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, Bugsy Malone or Woody Allen’s Midnight in Paris. Your flapper and gangster outfits can also come out to play when dressing up as television characters – try depicting the popular Underbelly or Downton Abbey characters from the 20s.
