As quickly as style-conscious men (including all of those documented in Morgan Spurlock's crazy new documentary ‘Mansome') devoured ‘Mad Men‘ for its overabundance of striped bow ties and fedoras, so too are they going after ‘The Great Gatsby.' It turns out, though, that men don't have to look too far to copy Leonardo DiCaprio‘s suave '60s swagger because it all came from Brooks Brothers.
Women's Wear Daily got the first look at the movie's wardrobe and sketches, which included authentic re-creations of classic '20s-era tuxes, pin-striped jackets and preppiness galore. Oscar-winning costume designer Catherine Martin partnered closely with Brooks Brothers, delving deep into its vast archives to create more than 500 outfits for the entire cast.
It really comes as no surprise that Jay Gatsby will represent the retailer on the big screen, considering both that his character tends to get a little too pocket square happy and that Fitzgerald mentions Brooks Brothers many times in the original novel. “It was this most basic and fundamental connection that has made our collaboration so authentic,” Martin told WWD.
What people want to know now (and by “people” we mean those guys who spend too much time shopping for Banana Republic's ‘Mad Men' collection) is if there'll be a ‘Great Gatsby' Brooks Brothers line to purchase in the future. If so, would you wear it?
Take a peak at what DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and the rest of the cast will be wearing onscreen come the film's December release date.
David Clarkson of the Devils was called for a pedestrian boarding penalty as Dustin Brown admired his dump in. Drew Doughty's blast from the blue line just six seconds into the power play tied the game 1-1. It was Doughty's fourth goal of the playoffs and second of the series; Anze Kopitar's assist moved him into the playoff lead for points.
The game's first 40 minutes featured the Devils playing a solid road gameplan, getting outshot 14-11 but keeping Game 4 scoreless. The Kings had three power-play chances thwarted; the Devils were empty on two chances, failing to convert any of their 15 power-play opportunities in the series after missing on another one late in the game. Los Angeles also clanged the puck off of two posts, including one chance that sent the goal lights inside Staples Center flashing.
As they did in Games 1 and 2, Devils goalie Martin Brodeur and Quick dueled save for save — Brodeur sprawling with poke checks and flashing kick saves, while Quick was positionally sound and athletically outstanding when necessary.
But in the end, the Devils finally solved Quick more than once in a game, for their first win of the series. DeBoer made some smart line changes and finally inserted Petr Sykora and Henrik Tallinder into the lineup for Game 4, and both played well.
