Alan Ladd as Jay Gatsby in the 1949 Paramount Pictures’ adaptation of “The Great Gatsby.”
The 1974 version of the film, starring Robert Redford and a perpetually whispering Mia Farrow, may have been kicked to the curb critically, but that summer, the film’s fashions helped to ignite a jazz age craze.
