Looks We Love- Great Gatsby Roaring 20s Style

October 13, 2016

By now, there’s a good chance you’ve seen Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 version of The Great Gatsby–and it’s no surprise that suddenly everyone is channeling the over-the-top style of Daisy Buchanan and the rest of the crew. From feathers to flapper-style mini dresses with beading and embellishments, the fun, flirty Roaring 20′s style is everywhere! In the spirit of The Great Gatsby, we would like to highlight a few Lily Boutique pieces that encompass the luxury, glamour, and romance of the Gatsby era:
The Charleston Eyelash Lace Designer Dress has a vintage inspired feel that will make you feel glamorous and chic in no time. It retails for $50.
The Daisy Buchanan Beige Embellished Dress reminds us of something straight out of Daisy Buchanan’s closet. It has an outer layer made with an arrangement of clear seed beads and rhinestones that create a sparkling look you’ll love. This dress retails for $64 at www.lilyboutique.com.
The Charleston Eyelash Lace Designer Dress has a vintage inspired feel that will make you feel glamorous and chic in no time. It retails for $50.
The West Egg Sequin Designer Dress reminds us of a 1920s flapper. It is made of a pale pink fabric with ivory and bronze sequins and tiny seed beads throughout and retails for $76.
Maybe you would prefer a skirt instead of a dress? Then consider the Zelda Scalloped Shimmer Sequin Embellished Skirt. This sparkly sequin skirt is perfect for your next night out with friends. We love the beautiful tiered scallop overlay with gold sequin and seed beads throughout. It would look nice paired with a cute top and heels–or pair it with a fitted blazer if you need more coverage. Donning this skirt is a great way to add a touch of Roaring 20s style to your look without going over the top. It retails for $48.
One of the things we love the most about Great Gatsby style is all the decorations, feathers, and embellishments seen on the shoulders of the dresses. The Chiffon Shoulder Petal Dress features a cluster of chiffon petals on each shoulder, giving it a subtle hint of Gatsby style without the over-the-top “bling”. This dress retails for $40 and also comes in yellow and green.
In keeping with the trend of shoulder embellishments, this ivory sheath dress has a touch of Great Gatsby style with an edge. The Studded Shoulder Ivory Sheath Dress has a great classic sheath cut with bold silver stud embellishments on each shoulder. This is a great way to add just a hint of Gatsby style to your ensemble–and it retails for $46.
The shoulder embellishments on the Fame and Fortune Black and Cream Designer Dress make it the perfect choice to wear to any 1920′s themed dance or event. Although the flouncy A-line silhouette is not typically seen in Gatsby-era style, the beaded shoulders and classic black and ivory combination make this dress a winning choice. Pairing this dress with a feather or beaded headpiece would instantly create a great look reminiscent of the 1920s. This dress retails for $82.
The Beaded and Lace Mesh Designer Dress is to die for! We love the understated classic color scheme and the sleek beads at the bodice that resemble pearls. Paired with a feather headband, nude or ivory pumps, and some pretty jewelry–this is a great dress that manages to be sexy and angelic at the same time.
The 1920s weren’t just about decadent beading and sequins–there was a softer side to the style as well. Delicate vintage-inspired lace captures the sweet, angelic side in the Black Lace Belted Dress. This romantic dress has a simple cut and details but manages to make a huge impact. Pair this dress with a black feather headband and pumps and you’ll look effortlessly pretty.
The Golden Wishes Lace Overlay Designer Dress is the perfect combination of vintage lace and Gatsby-style shimmer. This dress is made of metallic gold semi-sheer lace that will let you shine at any event. It retails for $75.
Miniature silver sequins decorate the bust of the Silver and Ivory Sequin Bustier Chiffon Dress, giving it the over-the-top glamour and decadence the Roaring 20s were known for. This dress retails for $70 and looks great paired with metallic heels.
This sparkly little party dress is a modern take on a classic style. The Glitzy Glam Coral Sequin Dress has a fitted cut, rounded neckline, and three quarter sleeves. The striking mesh and sequin overlay will catch the light and shimmer from every angle as you dance the night away. We like how the striking coral colors create a bright, updated look. This dress retails for $46.
The aptly named Golden Gatsby Sequin Designer Dress is definitely something you’d find in the closet of Daisy Buchanan or Jordan Baker. With its sparkling sequin and mesh overlay, this dress has “glamorous” written all over it. Paired with nude pumps and a clutch, you’ll be the envy of everyone when you show up in this little number. It retails for $72.

Vintage Style: Jackie Kennedy’s Oleg Cassini Peach Bow Dress

October 12, 2016

During JFK’s presidency in the 1960s, Jacqueline Kennedy quickly became a style icon, and it was during this time that French-born designer Oleg Cassini was hired to create her original wardrobe. From 1961 to late 1963, Cassini dressed Jackie in many of her signature looks, including wardrobe staples like A-line dresses, pillbox hats, trapeze coats, elegant jewelry, evening gowns, and of course her infamous colorful suits.

One of the reasons Jackie Kennedy’s style struck a chord with so many American women is that the looks were easy to copy and something nearly anyone could pull off. Unlike the fashions of the 1950s that included large circle skirts, tight waists, and petticoats with yards of expensive fabric, the First Lady’s A-line dresses and pillbox hats were something everyday women could emulate–and her style seemed new and fresh in comparison. Rather than opting for over-the-top intricate designs, Kennedy’s look was minimal, modern, and understated–the casually glamorous girl next door.
Jackie Kennedy gained the favor of the American people not only for her elegant style, but also for her tact and social grace. One way this was evident was in how she chose to dress on international trips. While visiting foreign countries, Jackie always dressed according to the cultures and customs of the country she’d be in. By showing respect for other nations and cultures, Kennedy fostered her own sense of style and gained admiration from all over the world.
A prime example of this was on a trip to India in 1962, throughout which Kennedy showed off a more conservative style than what she would normally wear in the United States. One of the most iconic looks from the trip was a peach A-line Oleg Cassini dress with a bow in the front:

This famous dress was widely photographed and featured in Life magazine. It is currently on display at the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum:

It’s always interesting to see how a style from decades ago can withstand the test of time, and Jackie Kennedy’s peach bow dress is no exception. The classic A-line cut, bold peach color, and bow are just as pretty today as they were 50 years ago.

If you’re a fan of this classic style and want to recreate the look, Lily Boutique has a similar style called the Lauren Bow Front A-Line Dress:

This dress retails for just $40 at www.lilyboutique.com and features a V neckline and princess seams at the bust. The attached skirt has an A-line cut with subtle pleating–and the bow in the center of the waist adds a playful touch reminiscent of Jackie Kennedy. This dress would look nice paired with wedges or nude pumps– or go full out Jackie-style and wear it with ivory pumps, pearls, and gloves. However you choose to wear it, we think Jackie O would certainly have approved!
