Each of them had a specialization! Machine Gun Kelly made a name for himself as a bank robber, who received his first Tommy Gun from his wife Kathryn Thorpe (aww, true love). John Dillinger went so far as to rob police stations, redefining what it truly means to “fight the law”. Of course, Al Capone thought much bigger. The term Mob Boss is practically synonymous with Al Capone, since he used his wits to gain control of the criminal underworld. Well, you've done good. You moved from being a gangster moll to being an armed and dangerous lady. And now you've made it all the way to the top as a mob boss. It's a natural evolution, but only the best gangsters have the gut and the guile to take over a top crime syndicate. And you've passed the test!

Chicago in the 1920’s. Al Capone and Dion O’Banion battled for gang supremacy, John Dillinger was in jail, plotting his return to crime as a bank robber and bootlegging was the best way to make some cash during the hard times of the depression. A lot may have changed since then, but the image of tough, Tommy gun wielding gangsters, still evokes a sort of romanticism about crime that your local law enforcement agencies probably don’t appreciate too much.Kid flapper costumes are a great staple to have in your kid's dress-up wardrobe! (or any age, for that matter) White flapper costumes can be worn in a 4th of July parade, to a Mardi Gras Party, and even on a cold Halloween night when paired with grandma's old fur coat from the seventies! Flapper girl costumes are sure to spark impromptu dance parties to big band music, every time they come out of the closet, which might be quite often! When out on the town many women could be found in flapper dresses. A twenties dress was flowing, bejeweled, and fringed! Usually, a 20s accessory would be their also bejeweled headband and a great bag!

Have you always wanted to be a gangster? You might have had a daydream or two about it. It sounds pretty awesome on paper, but there is a downside to being in the mafia.

Being a gangster in the 20s sounds epic, especially in an exclusive Deluxe Plus Size Gangster Costume. Well, it all comes down to this! Selecting your gangster Halloween costume isn’t always easy, since you really have to decide what kind of “criminal” you’d like to portray yourself as. Just look at all the real-life criminals of the 1920s. It was a case of "unintended consequences." The 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibited the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages in the United States. It was passed onmoraland health grounds. What its proponents failed to recognize was that people who wanted alcohol would find a way to get it. So a whole illegal industry arose, and the American gangster was born. Bootleggers. Moonshiners. Rum-runners. Al Capone. George "Machine Gun" Kelly. Then there were the G-Men, who worked to stop the bootleggers. Eliot Ness and the Untouchables. Izzy Einstein and Moe Smith. They all earned places in American history. Anything less than a snazzy suit and tie was doing the organized crime an injustice. That’s exactly the reason why all of our gangster costumes come with a dapper look that you can wear to the speakeasy, or to the next bank robbery (again, not that we condone any sort of unlawful behavior while wearing any of these outfits)!While we have so many ideas on how to put child flapper costumes to use, and we haven't even touched on the adorable concept of baby flapper costumes, it's time to move on to one of our favorite ideas, reusing women's flapper Halloween costumes for themed parties.
