Don't the people in these photos look like they're having fun? Whenever I see images of the roaring 20s I always imagine that it would be fun (of course only for people with a little money, but in my imagination that's me!) - I would love to drive fast in a convertible, drink champagne out of champagne saucers (forget about flutes) and wear some of the gorgeous flapper dresses - with beads of course!

I don't have a time machine to go back and see if it really is fun, but I do have the resources on this page for us all to dress up as flappers and then the onus of having fun is all on you!

1920s Flapper Costumes in Black

Flappers wore lots of different colors from silver to black, red to white and much more so let's look at some of the black Flapper costumes that you can buy -

Premier Adult Sexy Fabulous Flapper Costume


This is an absolutely gorgeous Jazz Age Flapper costume that includes the dress, buckle, bejeweled feather headband and pearl necklace. I would definitely look at buying the black feather boa, some fishnet stockings and black Mary Jane shoes as well because I think they really help make this costume stunning.
If that costume didn't take your fancy then check out these other black Flapper dresses - simply click them for a larger image or more information -

What is a Flapper?

Flappers were the name given to young ladies during the 20s who decided to buck their parent's ideas of tradition and bob their hair, wear shorter skirts and basically have what they would have referred to as a 'gay old time'. In other words they partied - they drank and smoked and generally lived life as carefree as they could be.

They also flouted the social norms of the time regarding sex which is probably why flapper costumes are often seen as a sexy Halloween costume to wear :)

Silver Flapper Dress Costumes

Roaring 20s Silver Flapper Costume


These sizzling silver flapper dresses are awesome and I think silver goes really well with the Champagne cocktails and topless sports cars that we think of when we think of the roaring 20s.

These flappers certainly do look like they know how to enjoy themselves and I think it would be very easy to dance the night away in these outfits whether you've learnt to do the Charleston to really look the part or whether it's just 'regular' dancing. These silver flapper costumes will shimmer away as you move to the beat and you'll find yourself the center of attention!

All you need is to add a cigarette holder as an accessory to your flapper dress and you're ready to go and sparkle!


Racy Red 20s Flapper Costumes

You'll certainly stand out from the crowd wearing a red flapper dress and the selection here is simply gorgeous - it's hard to choose a favorite, but I think the first one showing here would have to be my pick if pressed.

Flapper Hair Styles

Bobs & Finger Waves

Flappers were known to kick tradition and cut their hair into what were considered to be boyish hair styles such as the bob and Eton crop. There were differences in the bob styles though from the sleek, graduated bob to a curly bob. The finger wave was also a popular way of styling your hair.

If you want to style your hair in a 1920s manner I've found some videos for you to watch, otherwise keep scrolling down the page for some gorgeous 20s wigs.

Flapper Costume Accessories Check List

Do you have all of the accessories to complete your gorgeous flapper costume? Let's have a quick look
  • 1
    Cigarette Holder - flappers were seen as girls who wore excessive makeup, partied too hard and smoked, but who wants to stain their fingers by holding a cigarette when you can use a cigarette holder? There are some gorgeous cigarette holders available and holding one really adds to your costume and helps transform us right back to the roaring 20s in style!
  • 2
    Headband - feathered, jeweled or sequined headbands (or all of these things on one hair piece!) are a very important part of the flapper costume. A number of the dresses actually do come with a headband, but if yours doesn't you really should consider adding one.

    . There is an exception and that's if you have a hat instead, preferably a cloche style.
  • 3
    String of Beads or a Boa - whenever I think of flappers I always think of a long sting of beads, although a feather boa would work fine as well. I'm not sure what it is about these accessories, but the outfit never seems complete without them!
