The Great Gatsby and Great Fashion



Full of glitz, glamour, ornate details, and a true style all its own - what a 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 party 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 for a great look: ModCloth Mod Stylists Will Style You Up! The Modstylists can put together a look-book specifically for you!

Eye Candy and Style

  You know I was watch a news program the other day and the term eye candy was used in the conversation. Eye Candy, interesting term and will mean different thinks to different people. Basically its what is appealing to ones eye. For me when used in the context of fashion it was about the very eye appealing was that my wife dressed last night before we went out to the theatre. Yes that lady, my wife, is always eye candy to me but last she provided the wow factor to eye candy.

  So what is eye candy for you, in the context of fashion of course, I wouldn't want to open this discussion in a more broader sense as I my be unpleasantly surprised be the reply.
