The amazing costuming in the 2013 film version of the novel “The Great Gatsby” spawned a renewed love for art-deco and the fashions of the roaring 20’s. Although it is arguable that this jazz-infused era of fashion ever goes un-loved.

In the film, character Daisy Buchanan wears a beautiful headband recreated by Tiffany & Co.’s 1920’s archival drawings:

Which inspired us to create a ballroom-friendly version, but without the upper protruding feather part. Here is a sketch we put together before the weekend…

We had a lot of fun putting together this headband. A few creative changes along the way, and below are some pictures of the results. The crystal danglies are so fun. Movement on a headband is unusual, which makes this piece unique (although it depends if the dancer wishes to have movement or not in their jewelry). But they sure catch the light!
