Women's Flashdance Plus Size Costume

What A Feeling

Ah, Flashdance. The film we have to thank for the off-the-shoulder sweatshirt craze. It made legwarmers look cool and perms look...well, perms were pretty well established by 1983 when the film came out. We're still scratching our head over that trend.

But we love Flashdance. The drama! The dancing! The underdog! The water dance scene! Alex Owens cycling through Pittsburgh on her way to work at the steel mill. And that song that snuck into the movie at every moment. We're guessing you love this movie as much as we do, and that's why you're here. And while this Women's Flashdance PLus Size Costume probably isn't one you can do a lot of high kicks, spins, or split leaps through the air in, it does pay homage to your favrotie movie and show everyone that you are, indeed, a definitive child of the 80s.

Fun Details

This outfit highlights the styling of the film in a really wearable way! It's a sweatshirt dress in light heathered grey, with the film's title logo emblazoned across the chest in pink. The dress has a wide ribbed cuff at the hem and similiarly ribbed sleeve cuffs. Of course, the defining feature is the wide-cut neckline for that perfect off-the-shoulder look that defined a generation. You'll also get black leg warmers and a pink and gray fabric headband to hold back your (hopefully permed) hair. This ensemble is officially licensed from the film, so you can feel as authentic as you do cool, as gritty as you feel alluring, as ready to dance as ever!

Alex Forever

Just like Alex, you may want to get a body double to do your dancing for you, as this costume is a bit form-fitting for some of the more eye-catching moves. As for us, we don't care who did the dancing, we're just happy they did it! This film is a classic piece of American cinema, and now, you're a part of the action! What a feeling, indeed!
