While participation is entirely optional, we highly encourage attendees to embrace the spirit of the event and dress in their finest 1920s Daytime Vintage Attire. Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes. But what do I wear?? Here's an excerpt from an article from Women's Wear Daily that describes attendees at the famous annual Jazz Age Lawn Party on New York’s Governors Island that perfectly captures the look of vintage 1920s day wear: "straight-line chemises, drop-waist dresses and retro swimsuits, for starters, most of which were accompanied by loops of pearls, decorative headpieces and plenty of bob hairstyles. Not to be left behind, the men were as dapper as could be, many in crisp three-piece summer suits topped off with bow ties, pocket squares and straw hats."
