Art Deco emerged as a significant movement in decorative arts and architecture during the 1920s, subsequently evolving into a prominent style embraced in Western Europe and the United States throughout the 1930s. Its name was derived from the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925. Art Deco design epitomized the convergence of modernism and fashion, aiming to embody a sleek and anti–traditional elegance marked by opulence and refinement.
