Halloween flapper costumes can be daring and flirtatious just like the original flappers from the jazz era in the 1920′s. Flappers from the 1920′s were a different breed of women who were considered bold and sometimes reckless. Their style of dress was flashy and set a fashion trend that made it’s mark on history forever. They wore dresses with drop waists and fabric that swayed with their bodies, wore their hair short and bobbed, wore dramatic make-up and smoked and drank. Flappers provocatively danced to jazz and had lots of attitude.

Flapper costumes are colorful and come in a variety of different styles. A sleeveless dress with the waist dropped to hip level covered with layers of fringe is a typical style of dress for a flapper. A spandex dress which conforms to your body covered with layers of fringe is also a popular flapper style. Dresses can be above the knee and as high as you dare and can also be sequined and loaded with pizzazz.
