Peacock Flapper Dress

The Peacock Flapper Dress is our pick for a 1920s look people notice from across the room: a large peacock-feather motif worked in sequins and beading covers the skirt front and back, and a high-low hem of long fringe swings down to mid-calf. Wide tank straps, a scoop-to-V neckline and a front slit leave room for the Charleston.

Four Colors of the Peacock Dress, Explained

Every shade keeps the feather eyes. Green is a deep emerald with gold sequin eyes. Black and gold sets a black bodice over a bronze and gold sequin skirt. Plain black uses silver sequin eyes for a cooler, more evening-gown feel. Apricot is a soft cream with gold sequin detail and a layer of fringe on the bodice, lovely at a 1920s bridal shower.

Fit and Measurements of This Flapper Dress

The shape is body-skimming. On our size chart the bust runs from about 33 in (84 cm) in S to about 45 in (114 cm) in XXXL, and the hips from about 37.8 in (96 cm) to 49.6 in (126 cm). Measurements may vary by 1-3 cm, so if you sit right on the line, take the next size up. Prefer something looser? See our other flapper dresses.
