Women’s costumes
The costumes women worn in that period had a lot of feathers, a headband, a neckband, a boa and the dress would have a number of tassels to it and a number of beads. Even the handbags they carried would have beads and tassles. They would also sport a long cigarette holder with a metal mouthpiece and they loved wearing brooches – on their waistband as well as on the dress. They would have silver filigree work medallions as well as wear shoes which were high. Their dresses were not of stretchable material and they usually preferred choker necklaces to go with the ensemble.
The 1920 men
The men would generally have a hat, pants with braces and especially the pants would be pin striped ones, the shirt would be plain and long sleeved and they would have a loud tie. Usually the braces were in conspicuous colours.
If they wore a suit, it would be with a double breasted jacket and generally pin stripes as well.
The 1920s costumes flapper dresses and the pimp or the gangster suits are the most popular among the costumes of this era.
The women due to the amount of feathers and beads as well as tassles, brooches and more make quite a style statement. The men look dapper in pin stripes and in their suspenders. Buy them from the sure and go back to the time gone by.
