7 Ways to Get the Great Gatsby 1920s Flapper Look
5. Pearl strands
If you had good observation skills, you must have noticed strands of pearls which the female characters sported in the movie, especially during the party sequences. Hang a long pearl strand around your neck and you look all flapper.
6. Thin eyebrows
Back then, eyebrows were well-groomed and bold. You could test out brow pencils before applying. Your bold brow should look natural and not like you’ve painted it on. Apply with small strokes, not one long line and put on a clear brow gel to hold everything in place.
7. Styled short hair
As you must have seen, the women of the 1920s had styled short hair. If you have naturally curly hair, you can either straighten it or blow dry the hair inwards or make slight waves with a curling iron. The best way is to start with curling the section right above your ear for it’s the easiest bit to do and it’ll give you the confidence to continue. Tick your hair over the tong and in towards the direction of your face. Since this hair style is all about precision, go slowly and make sure the hair is tonged for a good amount of time for the hair needs to be hot to make sure this look stays put.
