The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald seems to be having its moment on the pages of fashion magazines recently. It's one of my top 5 favourite books, if not my favourite, so its quite odd sometimes seeing other people's interpretation of the story. I've always thought a drop waist is a pretty hard look to pull off, so what I'm taking from the glamour and opulence of the novel is the champagne, sequins and full on romance.
A couple of years ago I made Mum this birthday card inspired by a re-reading of Fitzgerald: In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars
I wish I was going to a Gatsby-esque party this evening, that would brighten up this miserable weather.
