| Need a dress for Saturday for a Great Gatsby/Roaring 20's themed party. A google search comes up with a cheapy costume from costumes.com. Anywhere in the DC or Rockville area where I can buy or rent a nice flapper/20's dress? |

I rented a flapper dress from Backstage on Capitol Hill once upon a time.
Oops... looks like it's closed. Yelp suggested a place called "Les Gals" in Silver Spring. Good luck! |

| Arlington county has a HUGE costume department with thousands and thousands of gorgeous costumes that they rent to theatre companies. They used to rent to individuals as well. You might could check there? |

| I rented at backstage too. Looks like it moved to van dorn and now has a new name (american backstage). |

| Etsy and EBay have lots of vintage dresses, but the timing is probably a little tight. |
