Flappers were the beginning of the modern woman. They didn't wear corsets, they listened to jazz, wore makeup, and cut their hair. Modern women owe a lot to flappers. But, don't worry, you won't have to cut your hair into a bob to show your appreciation. It's all about attitude, a little bit of jazz, and a sassy dress.
Workin' the RoomSo your toddler is practically an aerobic master? We're not entirely surprised. After all, your kid does spend hours running around sofas, jumping up and down the stairs, climbing anything tall, and trying increasingly difficult dance moves. Even better? Your kid doesn't stop! It's like they've got an excess of energy to run around all day long and will never run out.

Actually, we're kind of jealous. Your kid could probably eat a tub of ice cream and not gain an ounce thanks to all of that running around they do. Hey, maybe your kid could give us some pointers? Wait... they're a toddler? So they won't be able to give us any advice on calorie burning and consumption? Well, how about this: just let them do their thing, running around like a happy spastic puppy and we'll follow. And if they're trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, they'll spread their enthusiasm throughout the neighborhood. It won't be long until the rest of the neighborhood gets inspired as well. Maybe everyone will get together to do some aerobics at the next block party. It'll be like the best workout ever.

The 80s CalledThey said you look totally radical.Okay, so maybe an entire decade can't really make any phone calls to the future, but the 80s definitely were a special time. It was the age of teased up hair, bright neon colors, and cassette tapes. It was the age of New Wave, Hair Metal, and colorful antics. It was the age of spectacle, which we somehow lost in the angsty age of the 1990s. Well, we're on a crusade to bring that sort of audacious style back... one pair of shades at a time.Product DetailsThese bright orange shades are simple plastic frames. They don't feature lenses, but they do have a shutter style front, which is much better than silly clear lenses. They're intended for ages 3 and older, and are one size fits most.

Missed OutYour girl just missed out. She wasn't around when the 80s rolled around, so she missed out on the neon colors. She missed out on pet rocks, slap bracelets, and mixtapes.

That just gives you an opportunity!You can be the one to teach your little girl all about the awesome style of the 80s! You can show her how to love neon colors. You and teach her how to do the running man at the next dance party. You can even introduce her to killer 80s music, like Cyndi Lauper and Tiffany.

The shorts and leggings both feature and elastic band in the waist and features colors that just scream retro. The bright pink headband is made out of a simple terrycloth material and fits on your child's forehead. Finally, a pair of wrist bands bring the whole look together!Break Out Your Cassette TapesIf your child yearns for the past... or if you just want to teach your little girl the sort of outfit that you wore when you were young, then this cute 80s costume is the perfect place to start. Now, where you do place that Cyndi Lauper cassette tape... ?

The alley is dark, it doesn't look like much back there. A cat, or what you hope is a cat, skitters away from you as you step, tentatively, away from the sidewalk and into the gloom. There's one light above a door at the end of the alley and you hurry toward it, your heels clicking on the paving stones. You knock two hard knocks and three light on the door, just like you were told to do. A handsome man in a fedora answers and as he opens the door you hear it and smell it all at once. The trumpeting of the brass band, the smoke, the laughter, the magic of the speakeasy is floating up from the staircase, just for you. Wouldn't it be great to be a part of the golden era that was the 20's? Those ladies sure knew how to dress. They had thrown off their corsets for the ever fabulous sheath dresses that we still love today. The style back then was all about texture: beading, fringe, and feathers. All that fringe was really something once you were shimmying to jazz music out on the dance floor. Imagine that, after ladies had been wearing corsets in sealed up drawing rooms less than ten years earlier. Flappers were making up for lost time. These ladies knew how to razzle dazzle. Bring the magic of the speakeasies back to life in this royal purple flapper dress. When you put on this fabulous ensemble you'll be ready for all that jazz. Sure, this flapper's looking great in purple but tonight she's going to paint the town red.
There's no doubt that your kiddo has some stellar moves. She's been breaking it down for a while. Whether she's whipping her hair back and forth or springing into a sauté from first position she seems to have a wild kind of grace about her. There are plenty of famous ballerinas for her to dress up as but a modern girl like her needs a fun and funky take on the standard dance themed costume.

Whether or not she's seen the classic eighties movie, Flashdance, she'll like this off the shoulder sweatshirt, leg warmers, and sweatband. We're not sure if you want your daughter to learn the basics of welding but we're sure the smell of melted metal would make this costume complete. Your daughter may or may not have perfected those maniac moves that Alex Owens made famous all those years ago but she'll be inspired to make up her own moves in this ensemble. Those ballet school judges won't even know what hit them! You'll see it takes is a cute sweatshirt and she'll be dancing like she's never danced before!
Drive-in 101If you're about to hang out in a 50's diner, you're gonna need to know a bit of slang. Back in the day, the local diner was the place for youths to hang out for hours and get a little rowdy. With all the hubbub, the cool and collected waitresses came up with their very own slang to tell the cooks in back what to make next. Being cool cats, the waitresses kept on morphing the slang through the years and ended up with a brand new culinary vocab. For instance, rye toast became whiskey down. A first lady is spare ribs. And if a waitress hollered for the cook to make a Rueben but 86 the sauerkraut, the resulting sandwich would look pretty similar to a simple roast beef melt! Think you've got a little lingo down? Well then, you're ready for the costume!Design & DetailsWhether you're hanging out at the diner or heading to a sock hop, this accessory kit will give you a touch of 50's style pronto!

Dance Dance EvolutionFor hundreds of years, humans have loved to dance the night away. From string quartets and country dances to booming nightclubs and twerking, there has been a lot of variety in how we do it. There has also been a lot of variety in what we wear. Dress lengths have changed, suits have evolved, and the general level of formality has been raised and lowered. If you like to dance and you often find yourself reaching for jumpsuits, bell-bottoms, bold button-ups, and halter tops, you might belong in a 70s disco club. And if your go-to moves include the hustle, the funky chicken, and the sprinkler, then you most definitely do!Product DetailsDancing is never quite as great as when you’re wearing platform shoes. If you’re looking for a pair to complete your wacky disco outfit, try these Zebra Hologram Pimp Shoes. The 3¼-inch heels will give you a little extra height while you’re strutting your stuff on the dance floor, and the zebra pattern adds an extra exciting touch. Wear them with some colorful bell-bottoms and a deep v-neck shirt to really cement the style. You’ll be the king of the disco when you have shoes like these!
Beauty School just isn’t everyone’s cup of tea! Frenchy is one capable girl, but even she found it pretty overwhelming.

Nothing screams the 80s like an awesome pair of fishnet gloves that have no function other than to look amazing. Don't get us wrong, they do a great job of that. Just don't wear them around in the winter and expect not to get frostbite in diamond shapes like the holes in your new fashion statement. We guess that would be a pretty cool look as long as you didn't tell anyone the story of how you forgot the real winter gloves at home (eh, still not quite worth it.). Boy, what a weird time those mullet rocking ages were. At least the gloves looked really cool, even if they were also literally chilly as well. But if you do decide on that you might as well try a pair of neon blue ones to match the color of your frost bitten hands. Not convinced? Well there's always the fact that you can match these with any other radical neon colors we have, and look totally awesome at your next 80s dance party because nobody's going to dare put you in the corner with that attitude.
Those Gams got GameFlappers really knew how to dance! So many people these days simply bob up and down with a little hip wiggling and shoulder shimmying involved. Not that we blame folks for the way they dance right now. We're not those people who frown on the modern era. That's not what flapper lovers do. Flappers were all about the new, newest thing. Sometimes that newest thing was shimmying to big band music. And now that newest thing is doing a fast body shake to EDM music. Or whatever kids do these days. Honestly, we don't know what kids are dancing like these days. That's because the flappers kicked off a culture that moves faster than those new-fangled locomotives! Ever since the nineteen-twenties, culture has been changing! And yet, almost a hundred years later and here we are. We still dig the Charleston and we still dig that flapper fringe. Maybe that's because everything cool we have now evolved from a time of jazzy dancing. A time when you could take up five feet of dance floor. A time when those infamous flapper games had serious dancing game! Product Details & DesignThis cream and black dress zippers up the back and has a cream background with a rose lace overlay. The neckline has a velvet-textured v-neck border that looks slick with a long beaded necklace. The top has a drop waist leading to an asymmetric fringe skirt.

All that JazzYou'll feel right at home in that speakeasy when you're wearing this lacy flapper costume.

Shimmy and ShineHave you ever wondered why people don't seem to dance much anymore? Sure, we could blame modern music. We could blame bars and restaurants that never seem to make a place for people to move to the music. Or we could blame the fact that we're all too busy and distracted to learn the same dances well enough to play them out when we're out in public. But honestly, we're pretty sure that people aren't swaying and sashaying because we don't wear the right clothing. Grooving in high-waisted pants and t-shirts just doesn't feel right. If you want to shimmy and shake, you've got to wear something that shines and sways with you! That's where this lovely flapper costume comes in! You don't need to know any special dance moves or wait for some big band music to come on. Just move that fringe and let the sparkle do the talking!Design & DetailsWhen it comes to designing flapper dresses, our in-house creative team knows what's up. They design our 1920s dresses with a flattering fit that slips over the body with the perfect amount of stretch and space, allowing you to move confidently without getting swallowed in too much material. This dress zips up the back, so you can slip into it even after your hair has the perfect finger curls. The emerald sequins and fringe trim will make you feel right at home in the speakeasy or jazz club. Topped off with a stretchy ssequin-covered headband, you won't be able to resist a little shimmy once this ensemble is all together!A Century of SparklingIt's not every decade that folks strike on a fashion that stays fabulous for a hundred years. But here we are, still wanting to slip into the clothes of our great-great grandmas! Once you purchase this timeless look maybe you'll finally understand a little more about the jazz age. We wouldn't be surprised if the secret behind dancing the Charleston was all about sequins and fringe!

What's the Name?Everyone wants a bit of fame. We can't blame anyone for that. But, is fifteen minutes really enough? Don't you want to make sure that your name is remembered for years to come? Have it shouted from fans both young and old for the next few decades? Maybe have a musical written all about you!? Alright, perhaps we're talking more the realm of infamous instead of just fame... but being an infamous star has its own kind of glittery appeal. When you're infamous, your name is suddenly not only shouted by your fans but it is whispered by folks with wide eyes all around the world. They ask, "Do you think they really did it?" and look around to see if anyone is listening. They wouldn't dare want to earn your wrath, after all! Will they go to your shows? Well, you better bet they will! They have to wonder if you'll drop a clue to the secret truth. Maybe the night will even make headlines. They've got to be there!

Get ready for the sock hop, you cool cat! Put away that smartphone and throw out those designer jeans, because we're going back to the age of 50s Americana. The poodle skirt is an example of a classic look captured during a simpler time (okay, being at the sock hop and wondering if your crush will ask you to dance has never been simple, but go with us on this one). That pink will pop at any party. You'll make a statement and every greaser will wonder about how you got to be the hippest cat this side of the Cadillac. This ain't no Mickey Mouse Club get-up for some square from Nowheresville. These threads are far out, ya dig? So take that 50s night on the town to cloud 9 while looking absolutely dazzling! You can tell we've been working on our jive Daddy-O, and you should too! Nothing makes dress-up as fun as playing the part. Put a set of white-walled tires on your hot rod and cruise through town looking for the hottest spot to park your wheels. Accessorize with a pair of cat's eye glasses to really nail that 50s style. This outfit is demure and provocative all in one. There's an air of mystery surrounding that cute poodle pup and when you spin, well... that pink skirt will float like the crooning lyrics of a slow song at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. Relive an era of classic American culture and look great doing it. Marilyn Monroe's got nothing on you, baby!
Do you remember the days when everyone got their important information from the daily newspaper? It was a time when ink and paper ruled the world! It was a time when you had to flip to page A6 to finish the headline story! Yeah, we don't remember a time like that either. With the advent of internet and technology, pretty much every piece of information is at our fingertips these days, but there was a time when the local newspaper held a treasure trove of knowledge, and the news-carrier was like a messenger of the greatest ideas the world had to offer. These days, the paper boy is just that pesky kid that old people yell at for riding his bike through their lawn. We'd like to head back to the older time though! And although the internet and social media news feeds aren't going anywhere any time soon, this 20's style Newsie costume should at least help bring back that classic look! This adult 20's Newsie costume will have you ready to carry the banner in no time (we hear it's a fine life)! The costume comes with an old style shirt and vest with different cross-hatch style patterns on them. The pants match with an accompanying cross-hatch pattern and fit with a set of included suspenders. The hat is reminiscent of a 20's style newsboy hat and the news-carrier style bag adds the finishing touch to the look. Once you have it on, you'll be ready to shout, “Extra! Extra! Read all about it!” Just don't be surprised if people still try to use their smartphones to get their daily dose of information!

Our exclusive Grease costume is a great way for men to be an unconventional version of Danny Zuko. Usually, Danny Zuko costumes consist of a leather jacket and a pair of tight jeans, but this particular look depicts Danny when he's attempting to be preppy. The red t-shirt reads "Rydell High School" on front in white ink while the elastic waistband shorts have a red stripe down the side. This is very much a classic vintage gym uniform from the 1950s, but once you put on the bobby socks and the wig (both not included) then you'll look and feel athletic and hopefully you'll win the affection of your sweetheart, Sandy. Who knows, maybe, just maybe, she'll even say "yes" to going to the prom with you!

Let other folks keep their newfangled doodads and fancy online dating profiles, we want cherry-topped milkshakes and school dances in gyms, darn it, and we're guessing you do, too!

Only the Bestie for the FestieLet's get something straight. Hippies might have invented the music festival but this generation is perfecting it. People can look back on Woodstock with rose-colored glasses that would look right at home on John Lennon's face but they're overlooking some major flaws. Yes, people looked awesome and the music was groundbreaking but the logistics were pretty messed up. For one, there was nowhere to get food and water. Secondly, there were hardly any bathrooms... can you imagine. A sea of people and nowhere to go. Yeah, it's pretty lucky you can't smell those black and white pictures. These days festivals have all the magic and all the organization as well. We get to dance and sway to our favorite music while also staying hydrated. How fantastic! At the same time, some people can feel a little out of touch with their Woodstock roots. Get back in touch without giving up basic human hygiene when you invest in this lovely tye dye poncho!Product DetailsYou'll feel like the epitome of peace and love when you're rocking this poncho.

And since it fits nice and loose, you'll stay comfortable throughout the whole day. Perfect for decade themed events, music festivals, and costume parties, feeling the love doesn't have to be sequestered to one day!

People have a nostalgia for the fifties, that much is certain. There's the question of why. We could say it's the fashion: full skirts, peter pan collars, and red lips. It would be understandable for anyone to be nostalgic about those smashing ensembles. But, no we don't think it's only the fashion. Maybe it's the music, all bubble gum pop and hip rocking swarthiness that would be understandable too. So, we're pretty sure we're on something. What do people picture when they think of the fifties? That's right, a diner with people sipping on shakes and Cokes and eating juicy burgers and French fries. Those diners with their red vinyl booths and chrome exteriors reeled in the imaginations of generations to come. So, people came to these picturesque places in shining cars with dramatic giant hoods and sculpted wings on the trunk. In their red leather interiors, people would pull up and order these classic foods from the friendly carhop, listening to Elvis playing over the loud speaker. If you want to be part of the most nostalgic part of the fifties than you just might want to dress as the classic car hop. These servers in red and white striped dresses and white starched aprons, cuffs, and collars brought trays of happiness to the people waiting in cars. Top it all off with the jaunty cap and you're ready to bound down memory lane, maraschino cherry in hand.
The 70's were known for classic curly hairstyles. Farrah Fawcett started the trend with the feathered and flicked hairstyle that curled on the end. Barbara Streisand and Bette Midler rocked a fun perm hairstyle that showcased crunchy curls and lots of foxy volume. But no one at the time had ravishing ringlets like Donna Summer. Her iconic curls are legendary and helped to give her the title of Queen of Disco. Now you can point your finger in the air with confidence when you wear this killer diva wig. Once your sparkly ensemble is on and your makeup looks perfect, it's time to don this disco diva wig. You'll look just like the 70's songstress! Now is your chance to own the dance floor with your Donna Summer-esque wig. Don't forget to work those curls, lady!
Well, well, well, aren't you the cat's meow? Now, don't take any wooden nickels!Don't you wish we still talked like those flappers of the twenties? They had a strange kind of accent, half British, half American. People used to train themselves to talk that way to seem distinguished and it was perfectly socially acceptable. Well, try that these days and people might think you've lost it. Unless you're wearing a 1920s dress, if you go all in it just might seem copacetic.Ah, the twenties. They sure didn't end well but people certainly had a great time while they could. It was an era of dual personalities. In the US alcohol was banned and yet it's an era known for its parties. Perhaps that's because with or without the hooch people were still discovering their freedoms. Women got to show their ankles without a big to-do. They could drive cars, ride bicycles, and most importantly they could finally vote. With the absence of corsets and long hems, women's clothing began to evolve. Playing with textures, draping, and different silhouettes: they were free to experiment. The dress is straight-cut as was the mode of the day. While the top is overlaid with black lace, the bottom is rich dark red velvet with heavy draping on one side for that asymmetrical look.Let's say you need the perfect gown and hat to wear to that fancy party outside of New York held by that mysterious millionaire. Any modern 20's gal would have loved this ensemble. So, now that you've found the dress, it's time to work on the accent, whether or not people get that you're trying to bring back the accent you'll definitely feel your swagger factor rise.
