Gatsby Dresses for a Party

Gatsby dresses for a party need sparkle, movement and the right 1920s outline, and these sequin, fringe and beaded styles deliver all three. Find more ideas in our Great Gatsby dresses.

Dress Code for a Great Gatsby Party Theme

A Gatsby dress code usually means sequins or beads, a straight drop-waist dress, a headband and long gloves for women, and a suit with a bow tie or waistcoat for men. Gold, silver and black are the safest colors; jewel tones add variety.

If the invitation simply says Gatsby, any sparkling 1920s-inspired dress works. Fringe styles are best if there will be dancing; beaded and sleeved dresses suit seated dinners and formal venues.

Gatsby Party Dress for Men and Couples

Couples can coordinate by matching one color: a gold dress with a gold pocket square, or a red dress with a red bow tie. Men will find suits, waistcoats, bow ties and fedoras in our 1920s men's clothing.
