A flapper party is a 1920s costume party with glamorous dresses and jazz music. Many also include speakeasy themes, prohibition-era cocktails, and vintage hairstyles. Every party needs the right accessories to make it extra enjoyable. When planning for a flapper-themed party, there are several items you’ll need for your guests to get into the spirit of the event.
Flapper costumes are back in fashion, and for a good reason. However, some do not want to go the route of wearing an outfit from the 1920s wedding. Instead, there is a new and exciting way to dress up with these old-fashioned pieces. Here are some of the ideas to get you started:
1. Vintage Welcome Sign
The essential part of any party is the guest list. How will your party attendees know where to gather if you don’t have a designated area? This vintage-style welcome sign will let your guests know where the party is. It will also give them an idea of what to expect and jazz them about the night ahead! Vintage wedding signs are also popular and will work with your theme.
2. Snazzy Chandelier
No party is complete without a bit of flair. A chandelier is a perfect way to achieve that flair. It is also the perfect centerpiece for any event, especially in the 1920s dress. This silver chandelier will give your party a sophisticated look and feel. You can also change up your lighting with different styles of chandeliers depending on the kind of mood you want to set.
3. Ostrich Feather Centerpiece

4. Headbands and Hair Jewelry
Nothing is funnier than wearing vintage-style headbands, especially at a 1920s party. They will provide your guests with the perfect accessory while adding jazz to your look. You can also use headbands as a prop to create a fun photo backdrop or statement piece in the center of your table. Over time, headbands can become fragile and will need to be replaced. For this reason, creating several different styles for your event is best so you can rotate them out during your flapper dress party.
