Stunning Gatsby Style Dresses

The screen version of the novel “The Great Gatsby” impressed not only moviegoers, but also all who are not indifferent to the fashion of the dazzling and glamorous era of jazz.

In the postwar years, emancipated women gained the long-awaited opportunity to be relaxed and show themselves in all their splendor, which determined the style. It was a time of gangsters, jazz and sophisticated ladies. Money spent on luxurious costumes and chic parties. Fashion has changed dramatically: women finally abandoned their fluffy skirts and tight corsets, all kinds of fasteners and frills. The dresses went with laid-back neutral colors, rectangular silhouettes of a simple cut, bold cutouts. Shine and splendor were demonstrated by the best accessories.

An eccentric art deco style was born at this time.

The fashion of the jazz era embodies sophistication, aristocracy, sophistication and delightful chic.

Outfits in retro style attract seductive charm.

It combines elements of a wide variety of styles, but luxury details are always used. Elegant fur boas, dresses decorated with embroidery, fringe, precious stones and feathers were fashionable.

Important details of the evening dress were a long string of pearls tied in a knot, as well as gloves longer than the elbow. An additional accessory is a generously embroidered with small stones handbag or bag-bag on a cord.

The usual style of that time was a dress that cut out in the shape of a rectangle. Small tucks were allowed, but the silhouette remained not fitted. The waistline is significantly underestimated.Deep neckline more often on the back. A skirt of French length (to the knee or a little lower), which could be lengthened by sewing a fringe along the waistline. For outfits, soft shades were used: golden, cream, soft lilac, gray, brown and black. Feminine and romanticism was given to the direct silhouette by draping fabrics and rich accessories.

In dresses of the styles of the 20s, a woman with a very different body type will look charming.

The rectangular style will help to hide many shortcomings: it will “hide” the tummy, not the most pronounced waist, the difference between the size of the chest and hips. Often used in the style of the 20s, the multi-tiered fringe also helps out perfectly. Besides the fact that it looks very impressive, but gives the volume where it is required, and conceals from the prying eyes the excesses of the figure. Owners of large or, conversely, small breasts can choose a small neckline and decorate the shape of the neckline with an exquisite fur boa.

Any lady in such an outfit changes, and her image becomes incredibly feminine and romantic.

As you know, when creating the film, designers and jewelers spent 120 million dollars on creating images of heroes. Of course, the fashion of past eras cannot be repeated in detail, and the outfits of the heroines were only stylized in the fashion of the 20s.

Daisy, the main character of the film, born in a wealthy family married to a prosperous Tom, clearly shows us how wealthy ladies dressed in 20s. The girl first appears before the viewer in a delicate dress embroidered with feathers. At the party, the heroine appears in a luxurious cascading dress made of shimmering crystals. Throughout the film, Daisy appears in incredible lace dresses and fur boas. The outfits are decorated with pearls, diamonds, delicate gloves, romantic airy chiffon bows. The pastel colors of the dresses give the image of the heroine weightlessness and romance. In every outfit, Daisy exudes grace and elegance.

Jordan Baker, Daisy's girlfriend, is a prominent representative of the era of the 20s: independent, loves sports, loves noisy parties.

While belonging to high society, Jordan, in contrast to the main character, uses bolder elements in the image: dramatic makeup characteristic of his time, tight-fitting outfits, boldly exposing shoulders and back. At the Gatsby party, she also appears in a spectacular long dress in black, with a neatly beaded neckline and a shiny belt. Here it is, a striking example of art deco style.

Mistress Tom, Myrtle creates a sharp contrast with previous representatives of high society. And no matter how hard the red-haired heroine tries to be no worse than these socialites, she clearly demonstrates an example of bad taste. She is wearing red fishnet socks, vulgar screaming outfits with bright ruffles. Cheap accessories, huge earrings and similar ridiculous jewelry mercilessly give Myrtle a level. Nevertheless, we see that the Art Deco style did not leave aside the representatives of all walks of life.

When creating an image, preference should be given to dresses in pastel colors or black from noble fabrics - silk, velvet, lace fabric, delicate chiffon.

Straight cut, French length, bold neckline, low waist, pleated skirt or decorated with fringe looks advantageous. You can generously decorate the outfit with rhinestones, feathers, beads, glass beads.

To create an exquisite image in the style of the 20s, you need to complement it with suitable accessories. Long earrings with rhinestones and feathers, solid brooches and impressive rings. Pearl string can be worn in several layers and tied in knots. The neckline on the back with beads thrown back looks advantageous.

A fur boa, feather boa, long gloves and a small bag decorated with rhinestones or fringe add glamorous chic. To fully match the image - do not forget the long mouthpiece.

Gatsby-style shoes should be selected closed, with a rounded neat toe with membranes or lacing. Instead of shoelaces, it is better to pass satin braid, tied with an elegant bow. Shoes decorated with a buckle or a bow are also suitable. The heel is steady, tapering to the bottom, height 5-7 cm.

Gatsby-style makeup is the perfect complexion, with an emphasis on the eyes and lips. The main characteristics are a pale skin tone, skillfully drawn high arched eyebrows, a large amount of mascara, a thick eyeliner, a bow. Blush was used only on the apples of the cheeks.

In the early 1920s, the round shape of the eyes was relevant, with blackout in the inner corner. However, this type of makeup is not recommended for owners of closely set eyes. Dark tones of lipstick are used, with a matte effect.

Gatsby style involves the use of all kinds of hats - hats, headbands, felt bows, and a knitted silk scarf decorated with stones, feathers and sequins.

Hair is laid in waves adjacent to the head, long are collected in a bun. Variety and sophistication of hair jewelry, even if it is not a vintage hat, but a headband or a scarf-bandage, free girls from unnecessary trouble with their hair, saving time and effort.

The rules for the bride are similar - a dress in the form of an elongated cylinder with a lowered waistline. In addition to traditional white, the shades of the dress, at the request of the bride, can be very different: ivory, pale pink, cream, cream.

The most suitable is the gentle image of Daisy, emphasizing the charming silhouette of a dress made of silk, air chiffon and delicate lace.

• Rhinestones, pearls, various wedding jewelry are used to decorate the outfit.
• Collect a wedding bouquet of delicate little white and pink roses, lilies, adding greens. Such a bouquet, wrapped in lace fabric, will not leave anyone indifferent.
• Curl your hair in waves, put it in a bun and secure with hairpins. The hairstyle can be decorated with a small original hat, rim or bandage. Feathers, pearls, organza flowers, a hairnet decorated with small rhinestones will give fullness to the image.
• Complete the look with a small stone-embroidered handbag and long gloves made of thin lace.
• Wedding shoes also feature a mid-heel and a closed, rounded toe. Shoes for the bride, decorated with rhinestones or pearls, are also welcome.
• Bright and dramatic make-up on the bride, characteristic of this style, will look too rude. Wedding makeup should captivate with its sensuality. Lipstick of a pale coral shade, brown eyeliner and mascara, light powder will create a delicate image.

Gatsby's style leaves no one indifferent. Tastefully styled, stylish accessories delight others.

Do not miss the opportunity to pamper yourself with an elegant and fashionable outfit in this unique style.
