Gatsby Clothing Australia - Womens 1920s Black Sequin Flapper Dress

What's Included

• Black sequin flapper dress with Art Deco sunburst pattern across bodice and back, multi-toned fringe hem (black, silver, gold, gunmetal) layered 4-5 inches long, side zipper closure

Gatsby clothing Australia buyers know the look: a knee-length black sequin flapper dress with Art Deco geometry radiating from center front in silver, gold and gunmetal tones. This is the silhouette that defined the Roaring Twenties — sleeveless sheath, scoop neckline, fitted bodice flowing to slight A-line through the hips, finished with that signature tiered fringe that moves when you Charleston.

The sequin work follows authentic 1920s starburst patterning — alternating bands of black fabric and metallic sequined stripes create visual movement from shoulder to hem. Mesh panels at the neckline maintain period-appropriate structure while the back mirrors the front sunburst motif for full 360-degree impact. Polyester base with extensive hand-applied beadwork; fringe attached in layered rows mixing black, champagne gold, silver and darker gunmetal metallics.

Perfect For

Gatsby & Speakeasy Parties: Whether it's a Great Gatsby themed birthday, a prohibition-era cocktail night, or a 1920s murder mystery dinner, the Art Deco sequin patterning and authentic fringe silhouette deliver instant Jazz Age glamour.

New Year's Eve & Black Tie Events: The black-and-metallics palette works for upscale celebrations — New Year's countdown parties, vintage Hollywood nights, or any formal event with a Roaring Twenties dress code.

Charleston Dance Nights & Themed Pub Crawls: The tiered fringe moves with you — ideal for Charleston competitions, swing dance socials, vintage dance classes, or themed bar nights where movement matters as much as the look.
