With the forthcoming release of Baz Luhrmann’s movie adaption of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby, along with the ’20s-motivated holiday windows lining Fifth Avenue in stores such as Bergdorf Goodman and Henri Bendel, there must be something in the air. The Jazz Age was an era that sparkled and glittered. Let us fall back into “The Era of Wonderful Nonsense,” a time when entertainment and leisure activities were highly appreciated. Inspired by the lifestyle of the Roaring Twenties, this ideabook references the flapper fashions and art deco details to get a curated collection of glamorous and chic holiday decorations.
In addition to spreading holiday cheer, make a point to treat yourself in defiance of the constraints of the alcohol during the ’20s. It is the holidays, and we deserve a little fun and amusement! — Lauren from Fourth Floor Walk
