Great Gatsby!

Like everyone else, The Great Gatsby is on my nightstand being re-read in anticipation of Baz’s release. I am sooooo excited to be off to a Great Gatsby opening event tonight with a super-great BFF. In honour of our gettin’ all dolled-up and nineteen-twentifying ourselves, I thought I’d do a quick post on some of the Gatsby-inspired Art-deco goodness around the traps at the moment.

Really, who wouldn’t love this opulent, polished, brilliantly deco bedroom. OTT? No way!

I know I have gushed endlessly over Catherine Martin’s work with Mokum, Porter’s Paints and Designer Rugs, but how can I not start with the gorgeous interior decor from the Production and Costume Designer of the movie (not to mention director’s wife).

The stunning Antique Lace wallpaper in Lacquer by Catherine Martin for Mokum. The Gold, Champagne and Vanilla colourways would look equally as stunning. To insert just a pinch of this in your space, the textiles for those cushions are also available through Mokum. #Great #Gatsby 1920s inspired design on the RSD Blog.

Aren’t they all just the cat’s pyjamas!

I’ve gotta get a wiggle on and throw on my glad rags. Now move your gams and scram.
