Talking Twenties

We were recently commissioned by Alexandra of Bijou Bride to design a custom wedding suite and invitation for an upcoming shoot she had. The shoot would be styled around The Great Gatsby and when gathering research and inspirations we found so much of 1920's influence popping up in fashion, film and of course weddings!

There has been a lot of speculation that the rustic and vintage trends may lend themselves more towards old Hollywood glamour and elegance associated with the 1920's. We always say it's about you and your own style preferences but it's great to see another way of bringing something vintage to your day and if you're looking for something more sophisticated than handmade this could be for you.

We wanted to share a small collection of our favourite findings and a few examples of how you could maybe bring a touch of twenties to your wedding day...

The Ralph Lauren Spring 2012 Collection is heavily influenced by the 20's & 30's, taking us 

back to old Hollywood glamour, and has plenty of pretty pastel tones in there too.
