Looking for 20's flapper dress

jtra

Hi all,

I'm looking for a 20's style flapper dress for a fancy dress party. I find the ones in costume stores quite cheap so I'm not really interested in those. Has any one seen any dresses in any stores in Ireland? I'm based in Dublin so if you've found one there, even better!! I'm looking to spend no more than 50 euros but if you know of one that's more expensive, do let me know.

Cheers!

I'm off to a 1920's themed party soon and I got my dress off Ebay-you'll find loads there for less than €50. Just be careful to check the delivery costs because this can sometimes be as much as the dress. My dress is a "French Connection" dress like this
one.......

I bought 1920's accessories today from Ebay also-wig/head piece/necklace/cigarette holder all for €14 and with free delivery.

Miss Selfridge always do lovely vintage style dresses, quite expensive unfortunately though! Might be worth checking out their sale though.

Have you had a look in charity shops? I got a 20s-ish dress in one for €7 last year, sewed on a few sequins and done!
