And for those dangerous gangsters, being an outlaw was just as much about style as it was about ruthless competition with the law.

You moved from being a gangster moll to being an armed and dangerous lady. And now you've made it all the way to the top as a mob boss. It's a natural evolution, but only the best gangsters have the gut and the guile to take over a top crime syndicate. And you've passed the test! Each of them had a specialization! Machine Gun Kelly made a name for himself as a bank robber, who received his first Tommy Gun from his wife Kathryn Thorpe (aww, true love). John Dillinger went so far as to rob police stations, redefining what it truly means to “fight the law”. Of course, Al Capone thought much bigger. The term Mob Boss is practically synonymous with Al Capone, since he used his wits to gain control of the criminal underworld.It was a case of "unintended consequences." The 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibited the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages in the United States. It was passed onmoraland health grounds. What its proponents failed to recognize was that people who wanted alcohol would find a way to get it. So a whole illegal industry arose, and the American gangster was born. Bootleggers. Moonshiners. Rum-runners. Al Capone. George "Machine Gun" Kelly. Then there were the G-Men, who worked to stop the bootleggers. Eliot Ness and the Untouchables. Izzy Einstein and Moe Smith. They all earned places in American history.

Many things marked the 1920s, and the unique clothing style is one of them. The era that was portrayed in the Great Gatsby novel was also marked by gangsters. Mobsters were into bootlegging due to prohibition, but also robberies, murders, and all types of other crimes. Get this Gun Garter Holster to Complete Your Look! A Dress That Looks Like a Skirt?
