Throw a Gatsby Party!

Want a throw an end of the summer (yes, it's coming up fast) bash? Why not make it something fun and unique? With the approach of the new Gatsby movie this December, what better way to throw the ultimate party than to make it Gatsby-themed?

First things first: set a dress code. Have your guests come in full 1920's costumes, or tell them to pick a character from the book. Check out Ruche for some vintage-inspired pieces.

Plan the right decor. Pick up some Chinese-style lights like the ones below, or hang some airy white curtains just like the ones in Fitzgerald's book. Feathers, champagne and candlesticks will also add just the right feel to your backyard bash. 
Fun, stylish and right out of Gatsby's world.

Learn the Charlestonor at least, the basic stepsand teach your guests too! Playing jazz music will set the mood and transport the party back into the roaring '20's. 


Put your new dance skills to the test!
