All of the buzz about The Great Gatsby ( a movie I’m unsuccessfully campaigning to get James to see with me), has left me drooling… and not over Leonardo DiCaprio.
Fashion in the twenties was arguably the most sophisticated style decade for women– a decade I would have loved to have been part of.
There was no such thing as “too much”– art deco jewels and fringe, T-straps and martinis, headscarves and hats…. the more glitz and drama the better.
The exciting news is that much thanks to Gatsby’s movie adaption, the drama and glam of the roaring twenties are being reborn!
In the 20’s head accessories were all the rage! A trend I love seeing pop up more and more– because I am a sucker for dressing up a bad hair day ;)
Another “casual” Gatsby look I love are the flowy and flirty tunics and tanks. Flowy tops can be very fattering, and you can find them in solids, sheers or fun, funky and embellished like the ones below.
