PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- White short-sleeved fitted top
- Red satin necktie
- Black fedora hat with red ribbon band
- High-waisted pinstriped trousers with suspenders
This Womens 1940s Gangster Costume brings prohibition-era style to your next costume event, with high-waisted pinstriped trousers, a crisp white top, red satin tie, and a black fedora trimmed with red ribbon. The wide-leg silhouette and suspenders nail the smooth-criminal look without needing a props haul.
The standout detail is the vertical red pinstripe running through the black trousers — paired with the fedora's matching red ribbon band, it ties the outfit together. The high waist and wide-leg cut give you a flattering vintage silhouette that works for dancing or mingling. White top keeps the palette sharp.
Perfect For
Halloween & Costume Parties: A go-to for Halloween parties, murder mystery nights, or any costume event where you want a polished vintage look. Pairs well with a men's gangster costume for couples photos.
Themed Events: Spot-on for 1920s-1940s decade parties, Gatsby-themed evenings, speakeasy bar crawls, or prohibition-era fundraisers. Works for any event calling for roaring twenties or film noir energy.
Book Week & Literary Events: A teacher favourite for Book Week when you're dressing as a character from crime novels set in the prohibition era, detective stories, or any classic mystery fiction from the 1920s-1940s.
How to Wear It
Pair with black heels or oxfords to finish the look — shoes not included. A toy prop gun and a cigar prop (not included) complete the smooth-criminal vibe. Slick your hair back or pin it under the fedora for authentic gangster style.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size should I order?
Check the size chart image for bust, waist, and hip measurements. The high waist and suspenders give you some fit flex, but if you're between sizes we'd suggest sizing up for comfort through the hips.
Q: Are the shoes and gun included?
No — the listing includes the top, tie, hat, and trousers only. Shoes and any props (toy gun, cigar) are styling pieces for the photos and need to be sourced separately.
Q: Can I wear this to a 1920s Gatsby party?
Absolutely. The pinstripe suit and fedora fit right into any 1920s-1940s themed event, from Gatsby galas to speakeasy nights. The red accents give it a bit of flair without going full flapper.
Q: Will this work for a Book Week event as a teacher?
Yes — if you're dressing as a character from crime or mystery fiction set in the prohibition era, this costume nails the look. Pair it with a book prop from the era and you're set for any Book Week staff dress-up day.
