Gangster Wife Costume

A gangster wife costume should look as if it belongs next to the boss, and this dark brown pinstripe set does that with a tailored lapel shirt and a short, close-fitting skirt at a high waist. Brown is the warmer, more grown-up option of the family, a good fit for couples coordinating with a tan or brown three-piece suit.

Coordinating a Couples Gangster Costume

Match the pinstripe to his tie or pocket square rather than his whole suit. A brown fedora for him, a cream fedora or a feather headband for you, and two-tone shoes on both of you give an easy matching photo for a mob-themed anniversary, a murder mystery party or a Gatsby wedding reception.

Dressing Up the Dark Brown Costume

Brown takes faux pearl jewelry, champagne satin gloves and a fur-look stole, the outfit of a mob wife who clearly runs the household books. A deep red lip and a short bob or pin curls set the decade. The set has no hat, gloves or jewelry; pick them from our gangster costumes.

Gangster Wife Costume FAQ

Is it a dress?

No. It is a separate shirt and skirt in the same fabric, so it reads as one outfit from across the room.

Is it modest enough for a family event?

The skirt is a mini. For a wedding with grandparents in the room, add opaque tights and a longer jacket.

What shoes go with it?

Brown or black T-strap heels, two-tone pumps, or low block heels if you will be on your feet for hours.
