Green 20s Dress

From deep emerald to pale mint, a green 20s dress stands out at a party where most guests arrive in black and gold. The range here covers beaded and sequin minis, fringe cocktail dresses, floor-length gowns, bridesmaid styles and plus-size cuts. Compare other shades and silhouettes in our 1920s dresses.

Emerald and Dark Green 20s Dress Styles for Evening

Emerald is a jewel tone that fits the Art Deco mood, rich enough for a black-tie gala. The 1920s Christmas dress comes in emerald green, and the fully beaded evening dress, the beaded floor length dress and the green beaded maxi dress give a long, formal line. Blackish green sequins, found on the green sequin party dress and on a plus-size Gatsby dress with sleeves, look almost black indoors and flash green under the lights.

Pair emerald with gold-tone jewelry, black satin gloves and a black and gold feather headband.

Mint, Lime and Olive: Lighter Green 20s Dress Options

Lighter greens feel fresh for spring and summer events. The mint green flapper dress suits a garden party or a daytime wedding, the lime green fringe beach dress is made for a warm-weather theme party, and olive green appears on the beaded strap dress for a softer, earthier look.

These shades look best with ivory, nude, champagne and gold-tone accessories rather than heavy black.

Black and Green 20s Dress Combinations

Two-tone dresses are very much in the spirit of the decade. The black and green sequin dress, the 1920s dress for party in green and black, and the green and gold versions of the Great Gatsby flapper dress or the sequin evening dress mix green with a darker or metallic tone. Repeat the second color in your shoes or headband.

For movement on the dance floor, the backless fringe dress, the asymmetrical halter fringe style and the sequin tassel dress swing with every step; more options wait on our 20s fringe dress page.

Plus-Size and Bridesmaid Green 20s Dress Picks

Plus-size shoppers can pick sequin fringe, plain fringe or Gatsby styles, with or without sleeves. For a wedding party, the 20s bridesmaid dress in green lets a group of bridesmaids match without looking costumed.
