A tale of decadence and heartbreak!
Allow me to shift your attention to the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Huge hype surrounds the soon to be released (December 2012) movie, by the same name, directed by Luz Luhrmann, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire.
With this movie comes awesome inspiration of the alluring 1920’s fashion.
Designers like Gucci and Alberta Feretti are taking inspiration and flaunting the trend on the catwalks!
Gucci Spring/Summer 2012
Alberta Ferretti Pre-Fall 2012
Typical of The Great Gatsby 1920’s fashion era are; dropped waists, flapper dresses, floaty layers, shoulder capes, head bands, fringing, fur and lots and lots of rich embellishments!
Nspired had to source this trend on abayas, just for you! You can’t let the season pass without swaying in an enchanting Gatsby Look!
Drum roll please, let the “Jazz-Age” Nspiration begin…… (Note only Black and White photography will work for this 1920’s Nspiration. Lol)
A huge thank you to Rowena from Secrets and Stilettos for the photography!
All abayas are in stock and available from Nspired Style. Email me to set up a viewing appointment.

Your pages are so qui a de la classe (Classy) I love how you make reference to your current trends with pictures on the cat-walk of places like Milan and Paris ( Therefore the french in this message) Your models are beautiful and your Sep photo- shoot is out of this world, your pictures bold and clear,your your comments up to date. Well done, MashaAllah. Rock on girl. I still remember the 1st abaya I bought from you( Bahrainian LOL) and Now.. Gatsby, Feathers, Lace, Metal studs.. Oo La Laaaa
You are positively one who posseses avoir le chic pour faire (a gift for doing) Well done… A big Mmmmwwaaahhh.
Merci Shazia. Your kind words make me all giddy, I humbly accept. I love that you love our website and we will try to continuously Nspire! I am so glad you mention my models. They are such an inspiration to me! All are gorgeous and super intelligent. These beautiful ladies are studying to become doctors, accountants or teachers, some have marketing degrees or hold more than one degree. Many have successful careers and some of them run successful businesses but above all they hold the most beautiful aklaaq. An even bigger Mmmmwaaahhh to you!
Assallam wa Alaykum Naseema. I have to say well done for all your hardwork and Nspiration in this website. I just came across your website for the first time and I think it’s brilliant….
Do you design your own abayas?
If I were to buy one do I need to arrange a viewing or can it be bought online?
I hope to hear from your soon. JazakAllah!
Thank You so much Rabeya! Such kind words just inspires me more. I hope to always Nspire inshaAllah! Most of my abayas are ready to wear purchases from the Middle East or sometimes I work with a designer to make adjustments to meet the needs of my clients. Unfortunately I still do not have online sales facilities. The designs have such intricate silhouettes, fittings are essential. I have sent you a direct mail to give you more details.
Yours in Nspiration
