Plus Sized Sophisticated Lady Flapper Dress Costume

Life Gets Brighter, Faster, Flappier

The 20’s, as we're sure you remember, were a time of exciting, fast-paced change. Cities roared, an amalgam of automobile horns and engines and jazz oozing out of a nearby club. After the sun fell under the horizon, the city continued raging under the warm, harsh glow of new electric light bulbs. Possibility stretched beyond transportation and lighting, even, down to the right to vote in our democracy—and, of course, to wear dazzling ensembles like this!

FUN DETAILS

The dress and hat included in our Plus Size Sophisticated Lady Flapper Dress will help you recreate that classy look for yourself! Anchored by gold sequined fringe at the hemline, this 100% polyester crushed velvet dress may just drop jaws with its dramatic “V” neckline. The black headband is perfect for night or day, too, with its attached red flower and mesmerizing sequins. Tell your friends to keep their cigarettes securely fastened to their lips or cigarette holders, though, or before long everyone’s dresses might be burning up—yet another bright light along the vast New York City skyline.

Do a Little of Anything

The only way to really ensconce yourself in the era is to look the part, right? Classy and functional, unlike those torso-squeezing corsets, this style became the go-to for the era’s women and lives on today. Given the emulation in generations since, we’d say they must have been on to something. Don this dress and we’ll wager you’ll feel ready to burn rubber in that Model T, participate in democracy via vote, and then treat yourself to the latest Charlie Chaplin nickelodeon. Feeling your best in this, perhaps you’ll even venture out to that old sport Gatsby’s house for one of those legendary parties. Tell him we said "hello," would you?
