This dress is part of a series, each inspired by a different Art Deco stained-glass window found mainly in Amsterdam and other Dutch cities. Coming fast on the heels of Art Nouveau with its predilection for organic shapes drawn from nature, curved lines and asymmetrical patterns, the international Art Deco style which flourished in the interwar period – consecrated by the landmark Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925, from which it derived its name – was, on the contrary, known for its use of stark geometrical forms, loud colours, zigzags or straight lines, and a concomitant fondness for symmetrical motifs. Inspired by elements of Art Deco architecture, the dresses exhibit some of those traits.

This work has been made in collaboration with Adriana González Hulshof.
