Gatsby themed party

Do you own any long evening dresses? Something sheath ish perhaps with beading would work. Accessorise with a hair band and feather, long gloves, long beads, cigarette holder, and feather boa.

This is the only long evening dress I've got:

All of my other dresses are short and don't fit again yet!

I guess it depends on how far you think the other guests will go.

You could accessorise that dress the way I suggested and whilst no perfect I still think would be acceptable.

Without being too personal - what size are you and where abouts do you live? I might have something suitable you could borrow.

What about something like this:

maybe with this:

Miss Winter - that would make a perfect outfit.

I think accessories and how you do your hair are pretty key for this theme as well. Some friends of friends went to a 20s party recently, it was all about pearls, gloves, headbands, look at this:

every now and then i'm useful lol

Thanks ladies.

Miss Winter that dress would be fab - but not in my size ☹️ - will keep an eye out for something similar though.

Don't know if you've looked at amazon but it might be worth risk? For example:

Thanks Mrs Shep, I've ordered it so we'll see how it turns out. If it's no good my friend said I should be ok to wear the dress I've got with some accessories.

Ah poop - I wish I'd seen this earlier! You could have had my flapper outfit that I wore for our pink party!!

Fingers crossed!

I've just had an invitation to my auntie's 50th birthday in September, also with a Gatsby theme! J9 I hope you're going to flash us after your party ?

Hi J9! So, whens the party? Did the dress fit?

It's on 20th June. The dress didn't fit unfortunately but it's been sent back and I'm getting a full refund. I'm just gonna wear the navy dress and accessorise heavily!

Probably a bit too late. I was looking at Frock and Frill for bridesmaids dresses, they do a modern twist on flapper dresses. Bit on the pricey side, they have sales every now and then, its worthwhile following their facebook page as discount codes and flash sales appear on there.
