Anybody know where I can get a good priced, good shape flapper dress? I checked eBay and I couldn't find anything. I also checked the fabric store and I couldn't find any patterns [they told me Halloween is over] Well...obviously.
Also...to clarify I need a Flapper dress for my History class...I am doing a presentation of 1920s and Flappers, so I need to dress up for my presentation. Thank you!

Well you might have some luck at a second hand store, or you could try to recreate one using a plain dress and adding some fringe bought at the fabric store. If you cannot sew, you can just hot glue the fringe on in layers. Then all you would need would be some accessories like a hat and a long cigarette holder (you might find them in a party store) Good luck!!

There are lots of beaded flapper dresses in stores now. They are very trendy. Check out British high street fashion stores on the net (Dorothy Perkins, Zara, Top Shop). They all do mail order.

try a costume supply place, or a dance costume cataloge. THere are also historical patterns you can find in the library, normally under costumes. find a short, drop waist tank dress and put fringe on it.

try a vintage clothing store, or try a costume shop, if not try somewhere were they do alterations and they might know someone who can sew one for you
