  It may just be too obvious for Raissa to bother to mention it, but I think Daisy's bracelet connected to the ring is supposed to symbolize how she feels shackled to her husband. Even if that ring isn't supposed to be her marriage ring

  I’d say if people want to see a more historically accurate version to check out the 1974 adaptation. I’m okay with the modernisation of the outfits, but generally just not a fan of a lot of the designs of the women’s costumes. I do appreciate how they captured the spirit of the ‘20’s, and little Easter eggs like the Arrow Collar Man.

  Maybe it is not the most accurate, but it is the one of the best adaptations imo, it makes you feel the story and the exaggeration of the characters’ lives, same for the music, that is more “modernised” that actual jazz music. There aren’t many good adaptations out there, but this was definitely a good one.

  "The 1920s continue to be present in the 2020s with the resurgence of Gatsby-inspired fashions and Jazz Age parties." So what you're saying is... you CAN repeat the past?

  The wrap Daisy wears in that scene always looked like a fuzzy airplane neck pillow to me.<br>😅

  Id like to point out a slight error, the word four-in-hand doesnt mean the necktie as a whole, but just refers to the type of knot that is used on a necktie. The modern necktie that is used both today and back in the 20s is called a “Langsdorf” tie and can be knotted in many different ways, where four-in-hand is one of the methods.

  I can&apos;t imagine anyone but Leo for this role. There may be more good looking and younger actors but he embodied it well. The rest if the cast including minor characters were perfectly cast as well.

  All the J.C. Leyendecker art when referencing the menswear makes my heart happy
