That's cool. They were the badgirls of the early 20th century. They mostly had straight or curly bobs with bangs, straight beaded dresses with tassles, they tried to have small boobs with little cleavage (??) and always headband with feathers or beads. They used cigarette holders and wore Shalimar. Dark bee-stung lips and smokey eye. Good luck!
Here's some sexy ones for vday:
And they seem reasonably priced so.

Check out anthropologie, modcloth, or etsy. I know modcloth has a darling green dress it's called "Bead it in Emerald" and then "Cascading Cava dress in plum" there's not a lot left in that style though. There are probably other options too just look through their cocktail or party dresses. Check out Anthro, their dresses are a bit more pricey but they might have sale options. Etsy would probably have the better priced options though but it takes some searching.
Ooh. I want to link you my sister's picture from her homecoming dance that was 1920s themed. But that might be weird. She did her own hair and makeup. Anyways. Youtube search "1920s hair tutorial". I would practice the hair at least once before the party. And top it with one of those wide headbands with a flower or w.e attached to it. The hairstyle and dark lipstick really made the whole outfit look authentic for my sister. She found a dress at Forever 21. Look through their racks. It Was off white color with some lace, kind of boxy, not flattering imo but it fit the look.
