F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, published in 1925, reflects a time of dramatic feminine transformation. Christina Johnson, Associate Curator at the FIDM Museum, will provide an overview of jazz age fashion, Hollywood film icons, and 1920s high society. Johnson will describe how the fictional characters in Fitzgerald’s best-selling novel represent the decade’s new, fashionable ideals.
