If youve seen the trailer for Luhrmanns Great Gatsby remake, chances are youve been as mesmerised by the costumes as by the drama and relationship dynamics evident even in just the 2.5-minute spot.
Raising the films fashion credibility even further is news that none other than Miuccia Prada supplied some of the costumes.
Catherine Martin, Luhrmanns wife and costume designer, selected 40 dresses from and archives to adapt for the film, Fashionista reported.
I usually try not to literally reference periods in my work, because thats not the way I think, Prada said. But when I worked on the costumes, I realized how many pieces could become very 1920s with a little intervention and another point of view.
Prada also designed Gatsby star Carey Mulligans gown for her April wedding to Marcus Mumford.
The Italian designer joins fellow costume collaborators Tiffany, which supplied jewellery inspired by the era, and Brooks Brothers, the official mens costumier.
If only we didnt have to wait until summer 2013 to see their work onscreen... Until then, watch the trailer below.
