What's in the Box

• Black and red sequined flapper dress with tiered fringe hem and back zipper

This Womens 1920s Flapper Costume brings the glamour of the Roaring Twenties to life with intricate Art Deco beading and a show-stopping silhouette. The form-fitting midi-length sheath features geometric red sequin motifs on a black mesh overlay, layered fringe in contrasting red and black, and flutter cap sleeves edged in scalloped sequins.

The standout detail is the hand-applied beadwork — symmetrical arabesque patterns, vertical striped panels at the bust and hips, and circular sequin clusters that catch the light with every step. Tiered fringe swings from knee to mid-calf, creating authentic Charleston-dance movement. Flutter sleeves layer sequined mesh over white tulle for a vintage-feminine touch.

Perfect For

Great Gatsby & Roaring Twenties Parties: The natural pick for Jazz Age soirées, speakeasy-themed events, or any 1920s costume party where you want to arrive in full flapper elegance.

New Year's Eve & Vintage Galas: Step into a murder mystery dinner, vintage costume ball, or New Year's Eve celebration with authentic Art Deco sophistication that photographs beautifully under club lighting.

Halloween & Theatrical Productions: Perfect for Halloween when you want glamour over gore, or for stage productions set in the Prohibition era — this dress delivers instant period authenticity.

How to Wear It

Pair with T-strap heels and a feather headband for full flapper effect. Add a long pearl necklace, fishnet stockings, and a beaded clutch. Keep hair in finger waves or a sleek bob — skip modern jewellery to preserve the Jazz Age aesthetic.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart image for bust, waist, and hip measurements. This dress runs form-fitting through the bodice and hips — if you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit, size up. The back zipper gives you some adjustment room.

Can I wear this for a full evening without discomfort?

Yes — the sequined mesh overlay sits on a soft fabric base, so it's comfortable for hours of wear. The fringe adds weight at the hem but doesn't restrict movement. Test the zipper before your event to ensure smooth closure.

How do I care for the sequins and fringe?

Hand wash in cold water or dry clean only. Hang to dry — do not wring or tumble dry, as the fringe strands tangle easily. Store flat or on a padded hanger to preserve the beadwork and prevent sequin snagging.

Is this suitable for a Charleston dance class or active dancing?

Absolutely — the tiered fringe and midi length are designed for movement, and the form-fitting silhouette won't ride up or shift while you dance. The flutter sleeves allow full arm mobility for authentic Charleston arm swings.

Care: Hand wash cold or dry clean; hang flat to dry; store on padded hanger.
