GATSBY - LEONARDO DICAPRIO - May 10, 2013

Discover Gatsby’s greatness and compare it with Tom Lyle Williams and the Maybelline Company.


.

Needless to say I'm thrilled there's another remake of The Great Gatsby.  So much of The Maybelline Story and the Spirited Family Dynasty Behind it is cut from the the same 1920's, American Dream fabric.




And who better to play the part of Gatsby than 
DiCaprio.....Big Summer Blockbuster, 2013..... That's marketing!!!



The cars, the fashion and the lifestyle is right out of The Maybelline Story, as well. The only difference is Gatsby is fiction and The Maybelline Story is the real thing.



Check out this great trailer for Gatsby and some posts (below) I did on the Great Gatsby and the Gatsby lifestyle

GATSBY - The American Dream - Beautiful Cars and Homes.



Great Gatsby, Rolls Royce.

 Dick Williams, his brother, Noel A. Williams and cousin Bob (Williams) Haines, loved beautiful automobiles, reminiscent of their uncle Tom Lyle Williams, custom made gorgeous Packard's. 


Bob (Williams) Haines and Dick Williams, with their Gatsbyesque Excalibur's, in Boca Raton, Florida.


Noel A. Williams, bought this beautiful, 1975 Rolls Royce, for his 50th Birthday.  It looked spectacular parked in front of the Bernard Maybeck estate, in Monticito California in the 1970s.

Art Deco, avant-garde, slightly naughty, glamour..

Erte', the father of Art Deco, inspired these glamorous 1930s, Maybelline ads,





Art Deco was also, The Great Gatsby and High Society.



Art Deco, from 1920 -1940, represented modernism, the jazz age, streamlined design and elegance.


Art Deco was about turning life into art, It was glamour, Avant-Garde, and breaking away from old world thinking, after WW 1.



Hollywood is Art Deco.  Glamour's Golden Age.


A salute to Art Deco.

Art Deco summed up Tom Lyle Williams and Maybelline.
