PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Black sequined shift dress with red and silver art deco beadwork and multi-layered fringe hem with side zipper closure
This Womens 1920s Flapper Dress brings the art deco glamour of the Roaring Twenties to your next vintage party. It's a sequin shift dress with a striking ombré pattern—silver at the scoop neckline, transitioning through burgundy and red at the bodice, down to black at the skirt—finished with layered black fringe that swings with every Charleston step.
The sequins are densely applied in vertical chevron flames, catching light from every angle. The scalloped silver collar overlay at the neckline and the matching V-cut sequin trim at the back add authentic 1920s detail. Fringe is sewn in horizontal tiers across the lower third of the dress, creating that signature flapper movement. Side zipper makes it easy to slip on.
Perfect For
Gatsby Parties & 1920s Events: A natural pick for Great Gatsby themed parties, Roaring Twenties murder mystery dinners, or prohibition-era costume balls where the dress code calls for speakeasy glamour.
Book Week & Literature Days: Spot-on for Book Week if you're dressing as Daisy Buchanan, Jordan Baker, or any flapper character from The Great Gatsby—teachers and adult Book Week participants often reach for this one.
New Year's Eve & Costume Events: Works beautifully for vintage Hollywood parties, New Year's Eve with a retro theme, or any event where you want to channel old-money elegance and jazz-age sparkle.
How to Wear It
Pair with T-strap heels or Mary Janes and add a jeweled headband with feathers for full flapper effect. Long pearl strands, red satin gloves, and a finger-wave bob complete the look—accessories not included, but easy to find or DIY.
FAQs
What size should I order?
Check the size chart for bust and hip measurements—this style has a straight drop-waist silhouette typical of 1920s dresses, so it's meant to skim rather than hug. If you're between sizes, size up for comfort.
Can I wear this to a Book Week event as a teacher?
Absolutely. The Great Gatsby is a classic Book Week title, and this dress is a quick recognisable costume for teachers or adult participants—pair with a copy of the book as a prop.
How do I care for the sequins and fringe?
Hand wash cold or spot clean only, then hang to dry. The sequins are on mesh backing, so machine washing will damage the beadwork. Store flat or hanging to keep the fringe from tangling.
What accessories do I need?
The dress comes on its own—you'll want to add a headband or feathered fascinator, long gloves, pearl necklaces, and heels to complete the 1920s look. These aren't included but are easy costume-shop finds.
Care: Hand wash cold, hang dry, no bleach. Store flat.
