How the Roaring 20s Could Come Back In These 20s
Posted by Justin Grainger on
One hundred years is a long time, and there’s been a world of change – maybe a galaxy of change – since the last time there was a decade dubbed the twenties. These twenties may involve a lot of things people could only dream of in the 1920s, like smartphones, the Internet, and affordable air travel – but there’s still a lot modern day folk can learn from their 20s-era predecessors. This is especially true when it comes to dressing for the occasion, whether it’s a roaring 20s theme party you’ll be attending this year, or a smaller gathering you’ll be hosting at your own home – perhaps for the premier of a movie or someone’s milestone birthday. Here are some of our favorite standbys in the 1920s theme costumes that will have you doing the Charleston or the Foxtrot.
Flapper Costumes
You’ll love our variety of flapper dress costumes so much, you’ll be brainstorming ways to fit these outfits into more than just one occasion so you can repeat your fabulous 20s costume – or even get more than one flapper dress if you just can’t decide.
Featherless Boas
Boas are the perfect 20s costume piece, but they’ll also make you feel fabulous at virtually any party. With how easily it is to get lots of wear out of these featherless, multicolored boas, you may as well pick up a few or more!
Rosie the Riveter
Our Rosie the Riveter inspired hard working lady costume is as inspiring as it is cute, and comfortable! Honor the original Rosie with this outfit and pay homage to the thousands of women who worked tirelessly just like her to promote positive change in the 20s and beyond.
Charlie Chaplin
Charlie Chaplin is a hero for all generations and ages, a comedian and actor who tapped into the emotional consciousness of all who watched him on screen and still do today. Our 1920s Star Costume inspired by Chaplin himself will put a smile on your face whether you’re the one wearing it or admiring it!
Barbershop Quartet
We’ve got a vest for you and your buddies, so you can pull together that barbershop quartet – maybe for the first time ever, or a reunion tour from when you sang together in college. By coordinating vests, you’ll look timeless and classy.
Perfect Bob Wigs
Maybe you’re not ready to chop your hair off for that party that’s coming up, and that’s OK – though bob haircuts are all the rage (again)! We’ve got flapper wigs in the bob style in virtually any hair color you could think of, so you’ll be able to complete your look perfectly without making any permanent changes.
And if none of that works, you could always be a Gangster!!
