 Janet:

  Gangsters typically wore loud, pin striped suits, garish ties, and fedoras with large brims (think Bugsy Siegel, Dick Tracy, The Untouchables.) Men can accessorize with spats, opera scarves and two-toned shoes. Of course, carrying a violin case (discreet way to transport a machine gun) is the ultimate accessory. Molls, or gangster girlfriends, dressed in versions of an uptown flapper... so wear a fringed dress, feathered headband, and boa.
