Decade Costumes

Every decade from the 1920s to the 1990s has its own shop here, and between them we carry more than 200 dedicated period styles across our historical and decade ranges. Start with the era you want and you get the full range for that look, rather than a few period pieces scattered through a general costume list.

Womens 1920s Charleston flapper costume with fringed dress, gloves and feathered headpiece

Gold fringing does most of the talking here. The Womens 20s Charleston Flapper Costume is a three-piece set, dress, gloves and headwear, in sizes Small (4-6) to Large (12-14).

Four pieces for the 1940s, a green jacket, skirt, belt and khaki hat: the Womens WW2 Army Uniform Costume is sized Small through XX-Large.

Mens 1950s icon suit costume with blue jacket, black collar and skinny tie

Blue jacket, black collar, black pants and white socks, plus the skinny tie, the Mens 50s Icon Suit Costume covers Medium through X-Large.

The 1960s pick trades suiting cloth for navy velour. The Mens 60s British Spy Costume Blue pairs a blazer with white cuff detail and matching pants, Medium up to XXXL.

Wide collar, vest, flared pants, all of it white: the Mens Saturday Night Disco 70s Costume runs Medium through 3X-Large.

The mock shirt and body warmer are built into one garment, so the 80s Time Travel Movie Costume Mens goes on as a single all-in-one, Medium to 3X-Large.

Blue Power Rangers Morphsuit with attached hooded mask

A double-ended zip and four-way stretch make the Blue Power Rangers Morphsuit quick and easy on and off, sized by height from 5'5" to 6'5" across four sizes.

Getting the era right

Most decade costumes go wrong the same way: a general "retro" look built out of three eras at once. A flapper dress, a disco collar and a grunge flannel read as three separate periods even when the colors are a match. Pick one decade and let the accessories follow its shape, the fringe and headpiece for the 1920s, the wide collar for the 1970s. That version reads at a glance. Shape only holds if the fit does, and every costume goes through over 30 measurement checks. For a group or a couples costume, put everyone in the same decade and the theme carries across the whole party.

Frequently asked questions

What comes in a decade costume set?

Two to four pieces, for most of our decade styles. The Womens WW2 Army Uniform Costume runs to four, jacket, skirt, belt and hat; the Charleston Flapper Costume to three, dress, gloves and headpiece. Exact contents sit on each product page.

What sizes do decade costumes run?

Small through XX-Large or XXXL, depending on the piece and the era. The Blue Power Rangers Morphsuit is the outlier: it sizes by height. Check the product page for the full range on any one style.

Do you have decade costumes for kids?

That depends on the era. Open the decade page you want and it shows what that particular look carries in kids sizes.

Can I put together matching costumes for a decades party?

Yes. Work from one decade's page and give each person a different piece from it, and the whole group still reads as a single theme.

Which decade should I pick?

Go with the decade whose shape and colors you already like, or the one your party is themed around. Either route lands on a look you will want to keep on all night.
