1920s Date Night Attire

In the 1920s, fashion was all about texture and movement. Think fringe, feathers, sequins, and lace. Incorporate some of these elements into your outfit to create movement and add intrigue to your look. For example, a dress with fringe detailing or a feather boa can add playfulness to an outfit and make you feel like the queen of date night.

Opt for bold colors

When selecting your attire for a romantic night out, consider infusing bold and vibrant colors into your ensemble to make a statement. Red, silver, and sapphire blue were all popular shades, but black and white were also staple colors. Choose a color that reflects your mood or the occasion, and find accessories to match.
