Product details

Read F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic book, The Great Gatsby, annotatedwith a detailed look at the fashions of the roaring twenties!The Great Gatsby in Fashion,  by Debbie SessionsThe love affair with one of the greatest American novels ever written has just as much to do with the dazzling fashions of the 1920s as it does with great storytelling. F. Scott Fitzgerald, a dapper dresser, and his wife, Zelda, a notorious flapper, experienced the high life of fashion and culture in the twenties. It was only natural for Fitzgerald to include detailed descriptions of the clothing each character wore. It is in his observations of their dress that he unveils the characters’ motivations and morals that play a critical part in the novel. Fitzgerald’s audience in 1925 would have understood what color a “gas blue” dress was and would have known the sound of “clicking pottery bracelets.” Today’s readers miss the cultural context of those fashions, until now.The PDF eBook includes:The Great Gatsby, by F Scott Fitzgerald, full text (out of copyright)33 additional insights into men’s and women’s fashion and culture of the roaring twentiesOver 60 illustrations and photos of men’s and women’s clothing from the 1920sReview: “Great reference both for lovers of Fitzgerald’s classic who want examples and explanations of the clothing worn in this novel as well as for anyone interested in the clothing of the 1920s.
