What To Wear For Propaganda's Great Gatsby NYE Blowout

We've teamed up with top London clubnight Propaganda to offer Propaganda members a huge 20% off costume hire and 10% off retail items in our Old Street and Charing Cross branches.
They are throwing a huge New Years Eve party at Shepherds Bush Empire and this year the theme is Great Gatsby Blowout!
So what should you get when you come in to use that lovely discount? Here is our guide to Gatsby glamour.
Girls:
The quintessential 1920s look for ladies is the fringed flapper dress, along with a short bob hairstyle with feather headband, pearls and long gloves. Here at Mad World we can offer a full costume to hire from £40 (plus discount!) which includes acessories and cleaning! We have a great range of sizes and colours as well as a huge choice of unique accessories, meaning no-one will have the same outfit as you!
If you think hiring a costume isn't for you, we can still help! We have plenty of accessories for sale to turn a little black dress into something from the "Roaring 20s". 
For a sleek 20s hairstyle, try a "Partyrama" wig (available in black, brown, blonde and crazy colours, while stocks last £10) and add a feather headband (available in black and silver, £6).
To bring a touch of vintage glamour to a modern outfit, add long gloves and pearls.
"Temptress" gloves (available in black, red, white, pink or purple, while stocks last £9)
Pearl necklace (£3.60)
If you still want more to your outfit, why not add a feather boa and retro cigarette holder for ultimate 1920s glamour?
Cigarette holder (non functional, £2)
Feather boa (available in white, black, red, pink, fuschia, while stocks last £7)
Guys:
The most popular costume idea for 1920s events is the gangster look. The perfect opportunity to get up to some mischief, this look is smart and sophisticated. We have full suits available to rent at around £50-60 (don't forget that discount!) Not just gangsters either! We can do cream/white Gatsby jackets, stripy boaters or tweeds. See in store for full selection!
If you prefer to purchase, we have plenty to choose from too.

Add braces and a tie or bow tie to a smart shirt and chinos for a vintage look.

Finish the look with a trilby hat and inflatable tommy gun for gangster fun!
