Art Deco was a very important design movement in the early 20th century. In fact, art deco is still around today! What influenced this style was the Arts and Crafts movement along with Art Nouveau. Other movements that had a huge influence of the art deco style is Fauvism, Cubism, de Stijl, Constructivism, Expressionism and Dadaism. When we see art deco design in the early 1900's, we see geometric and linear forms, distortion of reality and sans-serif type. When we see art deco design today, we see the unordinary, simple shapes, solid geometric styles and pastel colors. It's basically the same art deco today than it was back then. It's amazing how far this movement has come and how we still see it today!
One question that I have is what does art deco fashion look like? We didn't really see many examples so I would like to know what a typical art deco fashion runway would look like!
