Looking for 1920s makeup inspiration? Look no further! A classic 1920s makeup look is one of the loveliest choices for a big day (THE big day, even), a night out on the town, or any party or event. Now, to be clear, there is a certain over-the-top silent film star look that looks best on actual silent film stars (there was some verrrry interesting eyebrow stuff going on in the 1920s film world), but a 1920s inspired makeup look? Always in fashion.
Take a look at some of our old favorites (and yes there are some 1930s-ish looks in here as well), and we’ve sprinkled in some new finds for classic vintage and 1920s makeup inspiration!

Just ask our previously featured art deco Hollywood style icons Myrna Loy, Louise Brooks and Clara Bow… So today I’m posting because I came across a really excellent video …
There’s something to be said for the deco-purist, the 20s enthusiast still wearing period-appropriate underpinnings and loving every minute. But there’s also a loveliness to the reinterpretation of old classics, like this gorgeous almost punk, almost goth, all 1920s wedding look. Stunning! 1920s punk pinup look.

Well, the trailer for Baz Luhrmann’s long-awaited (or long-dreaded, depending on your tastes…) version of The Great Gatsby is here! That is… well, it is interesting. Interestingly scored, interestingly cast… there will certainly be lots to look at, style-wise. The Great Gatsby is a perennial favorite for vintage-wedding inspiration, and there is certainly a lot …
