Gatsby era hat/outfit
Hello. I need an outfit for a gatsby style party. I have the grey flannel suit but I need to make it more fitting to the theme. Any suggestions such as hat? Bow tie vs tie? Vest?

Fedora and cigarettes
Haha no cigarettes
Should the fedora match the suit fabric
Fedora, white linen pocket square, art deco tie.
No
White shirt?
Where can I get a decent cheap fedora
See, I knew it wasn't a "small question".
Do you know your hat size? Probably eBay.
The most reddit question
I don’t actually want to buy a fedora
💀
Due to the implications
Is there a different style hat
Well even that era you wouldnt be wearing a hat inside
Honestly anything you could describe as 'cocktail attire' would fit
It’s an outdoor party
Well on a ship
Yeah I’m wearing my grey flannel suit I just want to make it seem more to the era? Idk what details other than a hat
Some pics have those gold chain things? Are those pocket watch chains?
yup

a little bit of rest
The Menswear in The Great Gatsby (2013)
It’s time to revisit the film that started me down this dark, expensive, closet-exploding path. Spoilers: it’s not very good and the attire is meh.
Ethan has lots of pictures of the actual era
Oh sick, I’ll look into this in a bit
Yeah important to note that the DiCaprio film isnt really period accurate
