1920s Costumes Include Gangster Girls and Flapper Dresses

1920's costumes are as hot as ever, and celebrate the romanticized era of the roaring 20s. From prohibition and speakeasies to automobiles and radios, the roaring 20s marked a pivotal generation of consumerism, excitement, luxury, and discontinuity.

Prohibition gave way to organized crime and later the Italian mafia and other gang outfits. Gangster costumes are designed after the gangsters of the 20's, with pinstripes and fedoras. Sexy gangster costumes give a heart stopping sexy twist to a classic favorite, with collars and wrist cuffs, short miniskirts, and sexy jacket tops. There is a sexy allure to a woman dressed as a gangster girl. Gangster girls carry power with every sexy step, and every action is backed by the don. With the rising popularity of social games like Mafia Wars, gangster costumes are also a great way to steal the attention of a game-obsessed lover. Put a hit out on your man and role play as a gangster girl.
