Does anyone know how to describe the style of Valentino, Baron de rede and Jay Gatsby. It is sort of aristocratic but slighty more sauve or flashy. I really like this look but I'm not sure how you would describe it ? XOriginally Posted by Alastair

I'm just guessing based on the time-frame of the book - 1922. Edwardian is 1900 to about 1915-20, but I don't really know what to call just after that period (in between the world wars).

I can't really picture what you mean. Broad shoulders with a nipped waist? White double breasted suits? A pic might help.
LOL at the "2 girls, 1 cup" comment.
