Oscar award winning costume designer, Catherine Martin who
designed for the highly anticipated film based on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The
Great Gatsby, partnered with Brooks Brothers to create a limited-edition
line of men’s clothing inspired by the costumes in the film. Out this month, The Great Gatsby, directed by Baz Luhrman, has clothing inspired by
the roaring ‘20s, in which the novel and movie are set, and
so the line of menswear will have a dapper Gatsby feel to each and every piece.
This limited collection has The Great Gatsby logo sewn into the tag of each garment. Each leading male in the novel has his
signature piece featured in the collection. “Brooks Brothers is mentioned numerous times in Fitzgerald’s
writings as a representation of the ultimate gentleman’s purveyor of fine
clothing to the American man of distinction…It is this most basic and
fundamental connection that has made our collaboration so authentic,” Catherine
Martin said in a release.
This specific partnering is one of the best
collaborations the movie industry has seen in a while because it makes
sense. Brooks Brothers is known for the
All-American preppy-polo look and elegant style. Let’s just say this exclusive line of
clothing for men will give Kourtney Kardashian’s baby daddy, Lord Scot Disick, extra
clothing to add to his already stellar wardrobe.
