Popsugar Fashion Retro Fashion 1920s-Style Flapper Dresses For All Budgets and Body Types 43 Perfect Flapper Dresses to Suit All Shapes 30 September 2019 by Gemma Cartwright As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work. Flapper dresses offer the ultimate in timeless, vintage-inspired glamour, and the drop-waist silhouette works for a huge variety of body shapes. Whether you're planning a party look, hunting for something special for your bridesmaids, or obsessed with The Great Gatsby's glamorous style, we have the dress for you. The flapper shape is the perfect antithesis to the body-hugging dresses currently filling the rails, but even if you prefer a more defined waist, there are plenty of subtle '20s-inspired looks that will work. To help you find the perfect flapper dress for your next big event, we've picked loads of our favourites from the UK high street and beyond, offering up a huge variety of styles, shapes, and colours to suit a wide range of budgets. Whether you go for a flirty, fringed red number or a full-on gilded gown, we've got the flapper frock for you. Now you just need to find time to practice your Charleston, add the finishing touches, and pick out a perfect matching hair accessory!
