What is a Gatsby Party

After the 2013 Great Gatsby movie, there's been a great demand for 1920s men’s fashion. The 1920s inspired men’s clothing has made its way into Ralph Lauren’s collection as well as other top fashion designers.

Someone might ask, is it hard to organize a Great Gatsby party at home? The answer is NO! Just remember adding the following elements and you'll surely get a successful GG Party this weekend.

• Chandeliers
• Feathers and Pearls
• Casino Games
• Vintage Decorations
• Create a playlist with modern covers of 1920s songs
  

That's it! Nice and easy. And the next part is the dress code. While a lady can wear her favorite flapper girl costume and gets a wig, it is worth discussing the gentlemen's dress here.

Let's start with a complete guide here:

An authentic 1920s formal look is different from modern fashion in a lot of ways. Some popular designs of 1920 suits are:

• Textured wools, tweeds, herringbone, check and thick striped patterns.
• Suit pants came up very high on the waist.
• Add suspenders to your pants.
• A matching vest is a must.

And don't forget the 1920 shirt styles:

• Early 1920’s men’s dress shirts had white detachable collars.
• Wearing a striped shirt with white collar will immediately transform your modern suit into one from 1920.
• A bow tie will make you look a bit more vintage than a necktie.

Don't forget the hats!

That’s it! Now you have the knowledge and connections to buy 1920s style clothing. Share your great Gatsby outfit in social media and @suitsoutlets. Can't wait to see your great ideas!
