What they wore
Posted By themaryanne on October 13, 2014
I love the fashion of the 20s. (This article about the costuming for The Great Gatsby is fascinating, I totally recommend it.)
This is the sort of dress Betsy would be comfortable in:
While Cynthia and Louisa would be far more partial to these:
Angela would just die, darling!
And the gentlemen would wear a little something like this.
None of the girls would wear these, but I love this picture and it reminds me of the picnic outside the mansion.
Yay for the floor plan! Suddenly I remember the ones I drew in eighth grade shop class, which had only about nine bedrooms but lots of secret passages and hidden rooms (and spiral staircases, my favorite!)
And clothes, too. Thanks! A way better idea of Betsy in my head now. I had her a bit more severely businesslike. Thank you!
