1920's Gatsby Party Australian Style

1920's fashion is one of my favourite things, so when it came time to host a celebration, I knew exactly what I wanted... Gatsby inspired Hollywood Glamour of the 1920's please! I'm sure alot of you can tell, due to my crazy "pinning on a theme" that once I have an idea in my head, I can get a little obsessive over it... 

I started by sending out these cute "save the date" invites via text message, as this event is coming around rather quickly, so decisions have to be made pretty much on the fly. When I asked my cousin how long she took to plan her vow renewal and birthday, she said two years. Oops. Here I am, trying to plan something wonderful two months out... (We're all mad here!)

I discovered a great online shop (in Australia-yay) that just sells Flapper Dresses..  Enter the Flapper Boutique! *** stars in eyes*** They stock a beautiful range of gatsby styled dresses.

I will be pairing my flapper dress with gloves, beautiful jewellery and a hairpiece. Many costume shops sell the specific replica version of the Gatsby headpiece and gloves that Daisy Buchanan wore from the movie. I could try and find some lovely Mary Janes style shoes too... JJ's House stocks some cute varieties, and reasonably priced too. Although it probably wont be cold enough, I'd love a faux fur stole to throw over my shoulders! 
​

I decided on an easy colour theme of black, gold, white and just a touch of red. Gatsby to me is simply sparkles, glitz and glam. Ensure you include Hollywood glamour and Art Deco elements.

​We discussed venues, and are still deciding between a beautiful vintage hall, in the Byron Bay hinterland, or an elegant poolside party closer to the Coast. This ties into the decision of figuring out whether to have a grand but relaxed shindig with all the kids included, or a standup cocktail affair for adults. Decisions, decisions! Haven't even begun to think about food! More on that in another post I suppose.


If you want to see Gatsby inspired party ideas, that many creatives have come up with, including Gatsby costumes, 1920's accessories, 1920's makeup, head over to my Party Planners Paradise page on Pinterest- which feeds my obsession! You'll also find ideas for decorating a Gatsby party, costumes for the "support" staff (or friends) including "cigarette" girls who hand out chocolate cigars, or fun vintage lollies like "Fads", invitation ideas including fonts, favour ideas, food and drink ideas including a champagne tower. I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off, thinking 1920's music as I fall exhausted to bed at night! 
​
Got any great Gatsby inspired party ideas you'd like to share? What would you wear to a Gatsby party?
We'd love to hear from you!

Feel free to browse our range of all natural lippies, for your favourite "Gatsby" Lipstick colour for a classic vintage 1920's look, and pair with black mineral mascara, full of essential oil ingredients for lush lashes.

    Hi, Im Rebecca,
    G'day from Tropical North Queensland, home of the Great Barrier Reef. Most days you'll find me barefoot, in a flowy boho dress, my head in the clouds. I have always been passionate about herbs and natural living. Essential oils are something I stumbled upon in my natural healing journey, and fell in love with their powerful benefits. Now can't see how I ever lived without them! Join me...and find your own kind of natural.
