Women’s Amethyst Purple Flapper Costume

Turning the TablesThe era before the twenties was a little dark when it came to fashion. Not to pick on the Edwardians but they really pressed for a middle part hairstyle that worked on almost no one. In the nineteen-tens people were doubling down on corsets, using new technology to make waists tinier than ever. And while the fashion authorities tried to keep woman buttoned up and weighed down by skirts, ladies wanted something new. They wanted to ride bikes, play sports, and vote. Once the decade rolled over to the twenties, women had had enough. They shortened their skirts, cast off their corsets, and cut their hair. They were ready to make a paycheck and have some fun. Now, if that doesn’t call for a little sparkle, we don’t know what does!Design & DetailsThis lovely Made by Us Amethyst Flapper Costume will bring the roaring twenties right to your door!
