Trend Alert: The Great Gatsby

Here is my ode to The Great Gatsby. Fashion is experiencing a throwback to the times of art deco, pleats, beading, speak-easies, and the Belle Epoque. Legendary designer Paul Poiret has been referenced and you can see his dropped hemline and flapper hats in a major way in the Proenza Schouler Fall 2007 collection. After all the 70s and 80s we've been seeing on the runway these seem fresh and a step in a new fashion direction - just don't take away my booze!

Looks like this is a trend that's going to be around for a couple seasons so if you fancy it, check out these glamorous Spring Gatsby finds, read more

    The Great Gatsby is my favorite book. "So we beat on boats against the current..."
