It’s not just you, it’s us too. Gatsby fever has reached the Mr & Mrs Store!

Ever since I attended Cape Town’s first Rockabilly festival back in April I’ve had this fascination for 50’s inspired styles which coincidently have been featuring heavily in some of our designer 2013 winter collections.  I’ve been lusting after Selfi’s, Goudi 50's full skirt in blue with unconventional fold details for weeks now, and with the release of the highly anticipated Great Gatsby movie and the Great Gatsby speakeasy of the year happening tomorrow, I can’t help but get caught up in the 1920’s too.




Both the runway and the red carpet are heavily referencing the elegant 1920’s, so now is the time to experiment with adornments that made the Roaring 20s era so influential. World War 1 was finally over; art and creative expression were alive again, and with it came new and colourful fabrics and materials.



We’ve had a think, rounded up the best references in the Mr & Mrs Store, and then there’s the products you need to get you there. Bootlegged Gin and Dirty martini optional.
