Art Deco evolved during the 1920s and 1930s. The earlier style was geometric, but by the 30s the forms were streamlined, meaning that they were sleeker, more aerodynamic but, in fashion, also more form-fitting than the waist-less 20s. Both men's and women's fashion show the grace and elongation of this later development. These lovely people are as slim and self-contained as panthers.
