6. • White like the flower daisy
• Looks beautiful, pure, and innocent
on the outside
• Mask of her true personality
• Daisy cheats on Tom and kills Myrtle
Wilson without stopping the car; white
covers up
these immoral acts
• Yellow like the inside of a daisy
• Color that is almost like a “fake gold”
• Symbol of her superficiality and lust for
material possessions
• Also symbolizes how fake she is and the
lies that she covers herself up with
