WHEN ALCOHOL WAS OUTLAWED, OUTLAWS BECAME KINGS.

Atlantic City came to Sydney for one night with the season one DVD launch of HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" at Twenty One.
Guests broke out their 1920's best as a salute to the show's leading man "Nucky" Thompson and his glamour girls and gangsters who ruled the East during the Prohibition Era. 

Among those resplendent in flapper dresses and gangster suits were former Australia's Next Top Model contestant, Maddy Huett and mentor Josh Flinn. Sydney Swans players Adam Goodes and Ted Richards made an appearance, as did X-Factor finalists Joel and Luke O'Dea. 

Themed cocktails and canapes from the era included Prohibition Punch and Atlantic Peach, while in true Atlantic City style "cigarette girls" served saltwater taffy at the end of the night.
