1920s Gold Sequin Evening Cloche

I made a matching cloche for my 1920s gold sequin dress.

I like how the dress and cloche turned out but I don’t like sewing sequin fabrics because it’s as messy as velvet fabric! The whole room was covered in gold sequins! And it’s not as nice as it sounds! 😉 The cut through sequins are sharp and stick to everything.

My sequin evening cloche is inspired by the following antique 1920s sequined evening cloche hats: 1920s evening cloche with gold sequins, 4-part crown; 1920s “Made in France” gold sequin cloche (scroll down); 1920s flapper girl with evening cloche; another 1920s photograph of a flapper with evening cloche and 1920s turban-style evening cloche with gold sequins.

It’s funny how women in the 1920s could change their hair color for one evening! Even two-colored hair was possible! 😀

  1. Wow! Great dress and hat. And I had no idea women wore those colored wigs in the 20s. Those pinterest photos of the wigs are fascinating. What were they made of?

  2. What a beautiful dress, and the cloche is absolutely gorgeous, Lina. I can just imagine how much of a mess the sequins made but it was definitely worth it! Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful historic outfit with us at the Hearth and Soul Link Party. I hope your week is going well.

  3. The era between the 1920s and 1950s was my favourite, stylise! I loved the femininity of the clothes then. This cloche and dress are absolutely stunning and I can so imagine you being completely covered head to toe – and the room around you – in sequins lol!! I bet it took ages to clean up 😉

  10. I love the dress! Aren’t you clever – that looks so great. I went to a big band on Saturday night and they were all tassly 20’s dresses. I decided I wanted one too -I’m all Gatsby!
