Blogged: The Great Gatsby

20130511-081751.jpg
With Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of The Great Gatsby, it’s hard to ignore the overwhelming glamour of flapper-era fashion. But the casual, free-flowing styles of the time also reflected something pretty radical: those fringed frocks embodied the progressive spirit of women who were rebelling against social constraints. As they were freeing themselves from the status quo, they were liberating their bodies from the bonds of tight corsets and high collars.

This season, Embrace a full-on revival of this symbolic trend. It’s time to ditch tight, body-conscious silhouettes in favor of loose styles that echo the “girl power” spirit of the Roaring ‘20s. Here are some hotsy-totsy looks.

A slouchy drop-waist dress, a cloche-style hat and a few understated accessories are all you need to get “it girl” appeal.
