Are you looking for some 1920’s fancy dress costumes? You’ve come to the right place as we have so many ideas for you for this glamorous era. The 1920s were known as the “roaring twenties” and the decade is most famous for the Charleston dance, flapper girls, the Mafia, and Gangsters and their molls so there is lots of choice for ladies’ and men’s 1920’s fancy dress outfits.
One of the most simple costumes to put together is a 1920’s flapper fancy dress outfit as all you need is a shift dress with some fringing added, some long beads, a feather bower and a feather on a head band for your hair. Wear a knee length dress with a waist sash and even some long silk gloves.
There are loads of fantastic accessories available to really make your outfit and if you already have a dress and just need to buy the accessories this makes it a cheap way to look totally authentic. If you prefer to buy the whole outfit there are some really glamorous outfits available to buy and you can just add to them with any extra beads or sequins.
Another simple costume to put together is a 1920’s gangster fancy dress outfit if you own a suit as you needn’t even go out and buy a costume. Wear a pin stripe suit with a black shirt and white tie and accessorise with a trilby hat and a toy machine gun to become instantly transformed into a Gangster or a Gangster’s moll.
Another great accessory you can buy are spats to really go the extra mile to make your outfit stand out from the crowd! If you don’t own a suit but you still fancy becoming Al Capone or Bugsy Malone for the occasion there are some excellent two piece pin stripe suits available quite cheaply for your 1920’s gangster fancy dress outfit. Other accessories you can add are a fake moustache and a fake fat cigar.
