The actress and style icon Eva Longoria celebrated her 36th birthday in style recently with a fabulous 1920’s style glam themed party. The party received a great deal of coverage in all of the celebrity and style magazines, and it seems that the star of Desperate Housewives seems to have set the fancy dress and fashion trend for 2011.

So why did Eva decide to choose the 1920’s theme for her party? Well, here at All Fancy Dress have some theories. Firstly, the 1920’s was a more glamorous, and dare we say it, dangerous era, which automatically appeals to everyone. Perhaps more importantly though, women just seem to love the style and elegance of the 1920’s flapper dress! Add to that cultural influences like Chicago, and you’re onto a real winner of a theme!

So in honour of this every popular style, here are just a few 1920’s fancy dress costumes that we’d like to celebrate:
