PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Black fringe flapper dress with multi-tiered cascading fringe from neckline to hem
- Black sequined headband with feather plume
This Kids 1920s Flapper Costume turns Book Week morning into a jazz-hands moment — layered black fringe that swings with every step, a sleeveless shift dress that nails the drop-waist silhouette, and a sequined headband with a feather plume your kid will actually want to wear. Comes ready to go, no sewing or last-minute panic buys.
The fringe is the star here — tiered from shoulder to knee in gradually lengthening strips that move like a real Charleston dancer. Black throughout, so it works over black tights or bare legs. The headband sits snug with an elastic back, sequins catch the light, and the feather adds that Roaring Twenties flair without being too costume-y.
Perfect For
Book Week & Literature Days: A natural pick for The Great Gatsby, 1920s historical fiction, or any Jazz Age character parade — teachers love the period accuracy.
School Decades Day & History Projects: Roaring Twenties dress-up, 100 years ago theme days, or drama productions set in the flapper era — pairs with a long pearl necklace and you're done.
Costume Parties & Dress-Up Play: Birthday parties with a Gatsby theme, casual dress-up at home, or any event where your kid wants to look like they stepped out of a black-and-white film.
How to Wear It
Pair with black tights or leggings and black Mary Janes or ballet flats. Add a long strand of plastic pearls if you've got them — skipping modern accessories keeps the 1920s vibe intact. Hair works best worn down or in finger waves if you're feeling ambitious.
Parent FAQs
What size should I order?
Check the size chart image for chest and length measurements. The shift dress silhouette is meant to hang straight — if your child is between sizes and you want room to layer a long-sleeve tee underneath for cooler mornings, size up.
Can they wear this over regular clothes?
Yes — the sleeveless design works over a black long-sleeve top or turtleneck if it's a chilly Book Week morning. The fringe sits on the outside so layering underneath doesn't affect the look.
How do I wash this? Will the fringe tangle?
Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry. The fringe can tangle in a machine wash, so keep it gentle. A quick shake after drying fluffs the fringe back into shape.
Is this suitable for a school concert or assembly?
Absolutely — the knee-length cut and full coverage make it school-appropriate, and the fringe adds movement without being too flashy. Perfect for Jazz Age performances or 1920s history presentations.
Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry, shake fringe to separate.
