The Great Gatsby is an intriguing film based in the 1920’s. The movie inspired me to develop a collection that accentuates the numerous amount of sparkle, glamour, colors, accessories, and most importantly costumes. I noticed a great amount of formalwear and daywear, gowns, dresses, tuxedoes, head pieces, hats, shoes, and jewelry that added to the traditional style of the 1920‘s. The sequins was a big feature in this film. The swatches I picked out were based on the textiles: metallic, silk taffeta, sequins, and fur. As far as the musical inspiration, jazz was definitely a factor for my mood board. It was interesting getting a glimpse at the past through a modern point of view.
