Charleston Flapper Adult Costume

The Charleston Flapper Adult Costume is the perfect outfit for the woman who wants to dance the night away in style.

Truly reminiscent of the time, this one comes complete with an evening dress inspired by 1920s designs, along with a beaded hip drape and circle sleeves, and available in small and large sizes (medium will soon be available).

Complementing the outfit, there is also a cloche, the fitted bell shaped hat made popular in the 20s. It has a contrasting colored pleated band and is already accessorized with beads, sequins, and a feather, though ready for your own personal touch. Made of polyester with a small amount of metallic trim, the costume is hand washable to make sure that you can enjoy it for years to come.

It does not come with shoes or other accessories, but these can be easily found, either in a second hand store, the costume jewelry department of a store or even items found in your own home. The store you purchased from undoubtedly has many accessories as well, from a stylish handbag to the trademark long cigarette holder, a famous item from the 20s.

Although it comes with a beaded necklace, don’t forget to add the earrings to complete the look!

The flapper attitude was one of recklessness and risk taking — an attitude that flew in the face of the Gibson Girl’s stricter morals and flaunted individualism, fast living, and a more sexually promiscuous way of life. Flaunting their sense of fashion, their boyish looks and their habit of doing things that only men did usually, they shocked everyone with their brashness.

The flappers smoked cigarettes and even teenage girls took up the habit as a sign of youthful rebellion. When visiting clubs of this new Jazz Age, they smoked and drank with the men and enjoyed the fast paced dances of the time. The Charleston, the Shimmy, and the Black Bottom, all consider far too wild for polite society, were their trademark.

The arrival of the automobile, made affordable for many people to purchase, allowed flappers the chance to drive them, which perfectly suited their fast paced lifestyles. Even though their style was boyish, sensuality was an important part of their lifestyle, and they set trends and behaviors then that helped create the image of the modern liberated woman.
