The clothes have that classic appeal that they can be still used in these modern days. However, an authentic 20s costume would require more than just the common clothes from that era.


Flirty Flapper Adult CostumeFlapper girls from 1920s
can be set apart by several factors including, hairstyle, makeup, accessories and clothes. Firstly, most of the dresses’ length from this era should fall directly above the knees.

There are some that are shorter or longer than these but this is the conventional length for flapper dresses. The cut of the dresses are usually free-flowing and it does not have any pleats that accent the waist. The material for these dresses is usually the silky type.


Stockings would help in making the costume closer to that of a real flapper girl. It could be dark-colored stockings but the color can also be based on what the person have in mind. If someone wants to don a blood red flapper girl ensemble, then it is up to them to decide.

It is common to wear garters to keep the stockings in place and those would be perfect for those who want a more sensual retro 20s costume. However, people who feel that it may be too much can choose to wear the more convenient pantyhose.

Dark hair and short dos were the thing so if people do not have these, they can opt to buy wigs.

Other than the option of buying a wig, they can also resort to coloring their hair temporarily. The usual hairstyle is adorned with soft waves even when the hair length is very short.

These curls can be achieved by wearing big pins all over the head after applying setting lotion. Once set, it would be as simple as removing the pins and fixing it without using a comb.

Red thin lips and exaggerated smoky eyes top the look with that rebellious and mysterious appeal. Char-lined eyes can be achieved with a lot of black eye shadow, extra thick black mascara and an eye liner. Waterproof mascara may be set aside if the costume party calls for a scarier costume.

Other accessories that may be helpful to complete the look include  elbow gloves,  head tie with a feather, layers of pearls that dangle around, long cigarette pipes and of course a lot of attitude.

A feather boa and a small purse would even make it more luxurious. Nothing else would stand between the flapper girl dancer and her trophy in a jazz bar. What a great example for a retro 20s costume to wear at your next party.
