THE GREAT GATSBY

Miucci Prada has collaborated with the head of wardrobe Catherine Martin for Baz Luhrmann's upcoming
reworking of The Great Gatsby, The 20's classic written by Scott F Fitzgerald.

"I usually try not to literally reference periods in my work, because that's not the way I think," Prada told US Vogue. "But when I worked on the costumes, I realised how many pieces would become very Twenties with a little intervention and another point of view."

Prada has reworked 40 dresses from her archive.

The central characters famously played by Robert Redford/Mia Farrow on this outing will be played by
Leo Di capprio/Carey Mulligan.
