Joan Crawford 1926

If you`re going to be a star, you have to look like a star, and I never go out unless I look like Joan Crawford the movie star.

I love the idea of “pre-casting” movies, because it combines my two greatest loves: speculating about how great so-and-so would have been in this role or that, and making vintage-looking film posters. It’s not an original idea — I snagged it from a Buzzfeed post I now can’t find the link to — but I’m going to be doing it quite a bit over the next couple days. I decided to start out with a film many of us are incredibly fond of: The Devil Wears Prada, of course.

Joan Crawford is doubtless the best example of the flapper, the girl you see in smart night clubs, gowned to the apex of sophistication, toying iced glasses with a remote, faintly bitter expression, dancing deliciously, laughing a great deal, with wide, hurt eyes. Young things with a talent for living. F. Scott Fitzgerald
