Fashion Inspiration: 20's The Great Gatsby

The Highly anticipated film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby" had hit the theatres in Thailand last Thursday!! I too look forward to watch the movie! As I love this novel so much and I have been a huge fan of Baz Luhrmann since he directed Romeo+Juliet in 1996; and last but most important, I have long been obsessed with 20's fashion!! I even dream of having a 20's revival themed wedding...how about that ?! lol

Talking about fashion in the film, Oscar winning costume designer, Catherine Martin has teamed up with Miuccia Prada to create 20's inspired costumes for The Great Gatsby. Those gorgeous drop waist flapper dresses with intricate beaded, fringe, feather, and sequin detailing. Not to mention pearl necklace and others sparkly accessories and head pieces<3 Seriously, I never get bored talking about romantic fashion in the Jazz era. That's why I am leaving you with some of the amazing The Great Gatsby inspired fashion photos to get you inspired ;)

Though the film just has just been released, many media people have already buzzed about The Great Gatsby roaring 20's style! Do you think The Great Gatsby 20's vintage art deco would make a big impact on the world fashion trend?
