Next up here are just some of the gorgeous authentic 1920s costumes and flapper dresses currently available at Deco Weddings beloved sponsor Unique Vintage:
They offer a variety of styles and price points, with dresses in the less expensive “costume” realm as well as beautiful hand-beaded gowns that will stand the test of time. They’ve also got a wide selection of sizes, with many of their designs available in plus sizing. Sleeveless, cap sleeved and long sleeved flapper dresses in a variety of colors too!

Another designer with a wide variety of sizes and a collection of stunning 1920s flapper dresses? GatsbyLady, whose shop on Etsy is a veritable treasure trove of Jazz Age glam:
Now of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the fact that we’ve got several gorgeous hand-beaded, higher-end flapper dresses for sale direct from us in our Art Deco Shop, as well as plenty of links to some others around the web:
Still looking? Surprisingly (or maybe not), Amazon actually has a fairly wide collection of art deco dresses and flapper costumes in the “costume” price range (i.e. under $60). Can’t speak to the longevity of these dresses, but some of them certainly look stunning:
And finally you’ve got your classic Halloween shop finds at places like Spirit Halloween or HalloweenCostumes.com. These dresses may not be hand-beaded, or feature the detail that some of the others do, but like Amazon’s selection they’re typically lower-priced, and there are some great finds there as well.
So how’s that for some authentic 1920s costumes! Everything from $20 just-for-the-night party dresses up to stunning hand-beaded flapper costumes that will stand the test of time. Happy shopping, and Happy Halloween!
