Full Of Glitz and Glamour Get the Great Gatsby Look

Wine and Dynamo Headband from ModCloth

Full of glitz, glamour, ornate details, and a true style all its own – what girl wouldn’t want “The Great Gatsby” look? Whether you are looking to enjoy a casual Gatsby themed garden party or don your most glamorous look at a fabulous cocktail evening, there are plenty of ways with ModCloth to add a flapper-esque flair to any look this spring/summer.

  • Details, details, details. Epaulets, pearls, rhinestones, and sequins were highly used during this time period to add glitz to an evening outfit.
  • Slender silhouettes. While you could still see a full skirt, long hemline, and high neck, the robe de style dress featuring a drop waist and straight cut was the most popular style.
  • Haute headpieces. To top off the entire look, add a whimsical & decadent headpiece from ModCloth. You can even DIY a fabulous headband with ribbon, feathers, and gemstones!

For more tips & tricks to achieve the perfect flapper-esque look, you can visit the ModStylists here: ModCloth ModStylists Will Style You Up!. The ModStylists can put together a look-book specifically for you!

What’s Your Favorite Iconic Pinup Look? What is Pinup?

Grable pin up looking over shoulder iconic

There’s some debate in the pinup world about what IS pinup. Is it 40s nose art like Betty Grable’s iconic over the shoulder look?

Or how about today’s Dita Von Teese?

I say it’s fun, sexy, sometimes a little questionable, but always celebrating the beauty of women.
