As you probably all know, on Thursday 16 May the highly anticipated film by Baz Luhrman will finally be released in Italy "The Great Gatsby".
I only mention Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan to encourage you to see. I am clearly a super fan.
However, if you are interested in the genre or in any case if you are passionate about the fashion and style of the Roaring Twenties, know that in Rome, only for a few days, there will be Galleria alberto sordi, a special exhibition dedicated to the film's sparkling clothes and props.
Then a evening dresses, for day and for cocktails covered with crystals, fringes, silk, lace, pearls and inserts in precious fabrics will reveal themselves before your eyes. But also tuxedos and men's day and evening dresses. As well as props including the white telephone used by the female protagonist, Daisy, recreated according to the splendid style of the time. Refinement in details, glamor and excess are the watchwords of the splendid 20s.
These beautiful pieces gently stolen from the upcoming film will shine so much that it hurts the eyes and will be set up right in the splendid gallery in Art Nouveau. The frame is undoubtedly up to par.
The exhibition was inaugurated very recently and it will be possible to take a look for the same short time. In fact everything it will end on May 17th, so you need to hurry.
The exhibition will remain open every day and theadmission is free. Don't miss it if you are around. And don't miss the movie either.
