Velvet Turbans, Embroidered Headbands & Flapper Accessories Looking to complete your 1920s outfit with the perfect accessory?

The right 1920s headwear can transform your look from simple vintage to full-on Great Gatsby glamour. From velvet turbans to embroidered headbands, this guide covers the most iconic headpieces of the roaring twenties, all while optimising your style and search engine visibility.

Why 1920s Headwear Matters In the 1920s, fashion wasn’t just about the dress — accessories, especially headwear, were key to expressing personal style. Flapper girls and high-society women alike adorned their hair with luxurious materials, intricate embellishments, and bold silhouettes that defined the Jazz Age.

Velvet Turbans: The Understated Icon One of the most elegant and often overlooked pieces of 1920s headwear is the velvet turban.
These headwraps, made from soft, rich fabrics, offered a chic and polished look for both day and evening wear.
Popular among bohemian creatives and fashionable elites, 1920s velvet turbans were often adorned with brooches, feathers, or glass beads.

Why you’ll love velvet turbans:
• Adds instant vintage glam to any look
• Perfect for cold weather or bad hair days
• Available in deep jewel tones
• A unique alternative to the more common flapper headband
Great Gatsby-inspired midnight blue velvet turban with coordinated tassels, ideal for vintage parties, art deco weddings, or speakeasy nights
Green velvet turban with vintage embellishment, 1920s headwear for Gatsby wedding, retro glamour, or Jazz Age style
Deep Purple 1920s velvet turban for women, classic Gatsby-era accessory to pair with flapper dress or embroidered gown
Teal blue velvet 1920s turban with matching tassels, elegant flapper headwear for Gatsby-themed events or vintage evening looks
1920s midnight blue velvet turban hat with tassel detail, perfect accessory for flapper dress or roaring twenties fashion.
Orange velvet 1920s turban with gold tassels, vintage Gatsby headwear perfect for flapper dress or roaring twenties costume

Come on over to my costume shop, where you can choose from a huge range of 1920's cocoon coats.

Talulah Blue Costumes created this specific design during lockdown 2020, when we could not import the fabrics we used to use, so needed to come up with something more locally.

The cut and make up of this garment is Talulah Blue's, inspiration taken from the 1920's cocoon coats.
Prior to that we had been using embroidered fabrics, for a good 10 years +

The flapper dresses are made to order, in a range of heights from 5ft1 to 6ft1, and sizes UK 6-8 to UK 18 - meaning we can make a gown just for you!

Black Mesh corset size XXS - XXL at Talulah Blue Costumes, pic Grace Elkin

If you’re searching for the perfect white mesh underbust corset, look no further! Whether you’re a burlesque performer, cosplayer, or just love a cinched waist, this corset is a must-have. Designed for comfort and structure, this breathable waist training corset provides a stunning silhouette while remaining lightweight and flexible.


Why Choose a White Mesh Underbust Corset?


A mesh underbust corset is ideal for those who want the structure of a traditional corset but with added breathability. Unlike satin or leather corsets, mesh fabric allows airflow, making it perfect for long performances, hot weather, or layering under outfits.

Key Features of Our White Mesh Corset

✔ Steel Boning for Waist Reduction – Provides the classic hourglass shape while offering firm support.
✔ Breathable Mesh Fabric – Perfect for comfort and extended wear.
✔ Underbust Design – Easily pairs with a burlesque bra, bodysuit, or any outfit.
✔ Adjustable Lacing – Customizable fit to achieve the level of waist cinching you desire.
✔ Perfect for Waist Training & Performance – Durable and functional for everyday shaping or stage wear.

How to Style a White Mesh Corset

Whether you’re dressing up for a vintage pin-up look, a steampunk ensemble, or just want to enhance your daily wardrobe, this waist-cinching corset is versatile.
• Burlesque & Performance Wear – Pair with burlesque pasties, high-waisted briefs, and dramatic accessories for a classic stage look.
• Cosplay & Alternative Fashion – Create a striking steampunk or Victorian-inspired outfit by layering over a blouse.
• Casual Chic – Style with a dress or high-waisted jeans for a fashionable, waist-enhancing look.

Why Our Corset Stands Out

At Talulah Blue, we stock high-quality corsets designed for performers, alternative fashion lovers, and waist training enthusiasts. Our designs ensure both style and function, making them an excellent investment.

Red and white stripe circus costume by Talulah Blue Costume, Pic Grace Elkin
Whether you’re a seasoned performer, a budding burlesque artist, or simply looking for a glamorous outfit to make a statement, the right burlesque costume is key to captivating your audience. From intricate corsets to sparkling embellishments, burlesque fashion is all about confidence, seduction, and show-stopping glamour.
At Talulah Blue, we specialize in burlesque costumes designed to help you shine under the spotlight. If you’re searching for the perfect burlesque outfit, this guide will walk you through the essential elements, trending styles, and how to find high-quality, unique pieces that elevate your performance.
What Defines a Burlesque Costume?
A true burlesque outfit is more than just clothing—it’s a piece of theatrical artistry. It blends vintage glamour with modern showmanship, often featuring:
• Corsets & Bustiers – Essential for creating a dramatic hourglass silhouette.
• Feathers & Fringes – Perfect for movement and flair on stage.
• Sequins & Rhinestones – Because burlesque is all about sparkle!
• Gloves & Stockings – Adding elegance and mystery.
• Headpieces & Accessories – Think feathered headdresses, jeweled fascinators, and dramatic masks.
How to Choose the Perfect Burlesque Outfit
1. Know Your Style
Are you inspired by classic Hollywood glamour, 1920s flapper styles, or something more avant-garde? Burlesque fashion is diverse, so choose an aesthetic that complements your persona and performance style.

2. Focus on Fit & Comfort
A well-fitted burlesque costume enhances your curves and boosts confidence. Corsets should provide structure without restricting movement, while skirts, bodysuits, and lingerie pieces should allow ease of motion for those signature burlesque twirls.

3. Choose High-Quality Fabrics
From shimmering satins to decadent velvets, fabric quality makes all the difference. Look for materials that catch the light and add to the drama of your performance.

4. Don’t Forget the Accessories
No burlesque outfit is complete without glamorous extras! Whether it’s a feather boa, glittering pasties, or opera-length gloves, accessories add personality and polish to your look.

Where to Buy Burlesque Costumes
Finding the perfect burlesque costume can be a challenge, especially if you’re looking for something unique and high-quality. At Talulah Blue, we offer a stunning range of burlesque outfits that blend vintage charm with modern elegance. Whether you’re looking for a full burlesque set, a dazzling corset, or the perfect accessories to complete your look, we’ve got you covered.
Burlesque Dressing Tips for Maximum Impact

• Layer for the Reveal – Burlesque is about the art of the tease. Opt for multiple layers, like a corset over a bodysuit or a dramatic robe over lingerie.
• Embrace Sparkle – Rhinestones, sequins, and metallic fabrics ensure you shine under stage lights.
• Invest in Statement Pieces – A show-stopping corset, an extravagant headpiece, or crystal-encrusted gloves can elevate your performance.
• Confidence is Key – The best burlesque outfit is the one that makes you feel powerful, sexy, and unstoppable.
