Fashion Highlight/Hot under $100: Great Gatsby Movie Fashion and Jewelry Inspiration

May 9, 2013

Who is excited for “The Great Gatsby”?

*Eeek and yay for Carey in Prada designed gowns*

But it’s not just Miuccia Prada’s creations.  Costume designer Catherine Martin also collaborated with Tiffany & Co. to create the luxurious pieces of jewelry for Daisy Buchanan and Brooks Brothers designed all of Jay Gatsby’s outfits.

Ok, but back to the movie…the novel “The Great Gatsby” is one of the most celebrated pieces of American literature.  But it isn’t just about the richly flawed and awesomely rich characters.  It is also about the sense of romance and decadence that was celebrated in that era. I found a few current fashionable pieces that were reminiscent of the era, but at more affordable prices.

Splurge: I also think Daisy would totally wear these Jimmy Choo crystal shoes. They are the “Diva” shoes after all and wasn’t she the diva of her day?

      Yay, I hope you get to see it this weekend dear! I may not be able to see it for a few weeks so I am bummed. Ooh and agreed – the Tiffany & Co. headpiece is stunning!

    I am obsessed with the handpieces for the film – so exquisite! 🙂

  • Sam May 9, 2013 at 08:33

    I think I love all the accessories more than the clothes from the era, they are so glam and blingy. I would love those earrings and the first exquisite hair ribbon/band.

      Sam I’m with you and would love that wonderful headband and a few baubles from that era!

    Love that cocktail ring, and the tiered earrings. I also wouldn’t mind a pair of those Jimmy Choos 😉

    oh those shoes!!!!! – do u know i STILL have yet to wear my Loubs – i think the f*ckers sold me a size too small – not there TOTAL fault – but *augh* frustrates me all the time when i see the damn box just sitting there

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living May 9, 2013 at 21:07

      Oh no, can you exchange your loubies for another size? Otherwise, I say try Nordstroms. Their customer service is stupendous and don’t they take back anything?

  • Johanna May 9, 2013 at 12:56

    Can we just talk about how excited I am to see this movie. Ok lets – MAJORLY!

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living May 9, 2013 at 21:08

      Me too Johanna. I’m bummed it isn’t released here for a few weeks but I am all over the movie when it comes out!

    love the color of the dress you chose – it is just the perfect shade!

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living May 9, 2013 at 21:09

      Thanks dear. The dress is a nice versatile one and the dropped waist reminds me of a 1920s style dress. Btw, I just got a tripod and thought of you. Now I have to figure out why the remote control doesn’t work after I already set the drive to the right setting. I’m also not completely used to shooting on manual so we’ll see!
