Film and Furniture: Andra Day is captivating and wholly believable as Billie Holiday in Lee Daniels’ new movie The United States vs. Billie Holiday and has already been recognised for her performance with a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress. The film sets are equally absorbing. From jazz clubs to penthouses, the colour themes are rich and deep, and some gorgeous art deco furniture caught our eye too.

I am obsessed with art deco and the general aesthetic of early Hollywood. The colors are so rich and beautiful and the outfits are so glamorous and you really do understand why everyone idolized these people during the early 20th century. I love the artwork by artist of the time like Neil Brinkley who exaggerates the make up hair and outfits to such a high degree, it makes you wish that they actually looked that beautiful and effortless. Nothing was minimalist because everyone wanted to show that they were wealthy, even if they weren't, and you can see how much that contrasts with the popular minimalism of today. It makes me wish people would bring back highly detailed wallpaper and furniture. Also, and this might just be me, but I wish opera gloves came back into fashion. I think they are so beautiful and fun and I would wear them all the time. We should also bring back curlers.
