Decorations for a 1920s Speakeasy Themed Party?
Does anyone know of any stores (online store or physical store) where I could get decorations for this particular theme of party? I have looked everywhere but seem to be having very little luck. Thanks.

Well maybe you have to change the words you are searching on. During this period, the girls who frequented the speakeasy's were called "flappers", the wore straight chemise dresses, long strings of beads and ostritch feathers. the art theme was Art Deco. So look up flappers and look up Art Deco, and you have an idea of what passed for decor and costume in the 1920's. Prohibition came about during that time and so did the mob. Men wore Zoot Suits and with watch chains, and the mobsters carried machine guns in violin cases. The law men after the mobsters were called G Men, most of them wore suits and fedora's (hats). Champagne was popular, feather boa's, french manicures, long gloves with the fingers cut off, and cigarett holders.
This should be enough to get you started.
