Diamonds to Blazers: Gatsby Mania Inspires Retailers
Inspired by the glitz and glamour of "The Great Gatsby's" 1920s backdrop (and hoping to capitalize on some free press), several retailers have launched collections to help consumers to live it up West Egg style.
No movie could better represent the mid-Depression mood better than The Great Gatsby. In the 1930s, comedies were popular during the 1934-1937 recovery. Today, after trillions in global central bank printing, the perfect movie comes out and plays up the perfect angle. It is an opulent feast for the eyes, a glitzy take on the 1920s timed perfectly for new stock market highs. Yes, the 1920s are here again! But for how long?
