20s for New Year’s

20s are going to be really big next season and not only in fashion. Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio will star in Baz Luhrmann’s Great Gatsby and so I cannot think of a better way to inject some veritable glamour in your New Year’s party outfit than with a 20s inspired dress. Forget about the long pearl necklace, gloves and the flapper dress. Designers have reinvented 20s for spring/summer and there are so many options for you to work a little Daisy Buchanan influence. 

Ralph Lauren based his entire collection on the 20s but other designers have also used different elements to bring that dazzling extravaganza back. Marc Jacobs was one of my favourites for his fresh spin on the flapper dress. Here are other looks from the ss2012 collections that could be useful as inspiration for your party outfit. Don’t be afraid do overdo your make-up and hair, this is about glamour after all.
