The long-awaited Great Gatsby film is due out in the UK this week, and with this there is a frenzy of desire for all things 1920s. And who can blame us: the glamour, the frivolity and the beading is enough to make any vintage gal swoon.
This week’s 10 of the Best features 1920s vintage fashion (watch out for 1920s homewares next week).
1. No vintage fashion list would be complete without Love Miss Daisy. They are so clued up they even have a Great Gatsby section on their site filled with dreamy style. This dress is our favourite.
2. Every flapper needs a headband and these wedding accessories are amazing. Beautifully handmade by Debbie Carlisle we love this style best.
3. The cloche hat was worn by every lady in the 1920s. It had a comeback last season (remember the John Lewis advert?) This vintage original is stunning.
4. These small compacts with a loop for your finger are the perfect accessory.
5. Real Green Dress handpick stunning vintage clothing and this 1920s dress coming soon won’t disappoint.
6. Here at Your Vintage Life have this amazing bridal tiara headband which was worn in the 1920s then again in the late 1950s. You don’t need a wedding to wear this!
7. This sash pin from Catwalk Creative Vintage is so pretty and would brighten up any lapel.
8. This flapper beaded handbag is a joy…almost too good to use! maybe just hang it on your bedroom wall instead!
9. This leather clutch bag is a more practical choice yet no less beautiful!
10. Back to Love Miss Daisy for number 10: this 1960s Flapper style dress will see you through the summer as well as being the perfect party Christmas dress!
