This spring, designers drew inspiration from one of the loveliest eras of all time, the Jazz Age. Channel Daisy Buchanan in pretty pastel frocks from Ralph Lauren or Christian Dior, which heavily referenced The Great Gatsby heroine. 

If screen siren Jean Harlow is more your style, try a seductive gown in curve hugging satin (Suno) or sheer and cut on the bias (Christian Dior). 

Flapper fringe added a dressy element to a gorgeous metallic frock at Marchesa and a super chic robe at Mark Fast. But if you prefer a less literal look, drop waist cocktail dresses at Marc Jacobs or weekend perfect outfits from Sonia Rykiel are both elegant and wearable options.

Tom Ford S/S 2011 Womenswear Fashion Show

This is a fashion lover's extravaganza. Glam, glitz and everything fashion should be, but rarely is. Models smiling for once! People having fun! Celebs and models swilling champagne! Young and old alike modeling the clothes, proving that Tom Ford can make more than a 6" tall, 14-year-old, underfed model look radiant. Love, love, love. Best fashion show of the year. Beyonce, Daphne, Julianne, Marisa Berenson, Lauren Hutton, Natalia Vodianova, and other celebrity types model.
