1930 Fashion in Wearable, Furniture and Architecture
My nigh favorite style in vesture and article of furniture is the 1930 Art Deco manner, likewise the Art Nouveau style of the 1920s. Parallel with those styles we had the Amsterdam Schoolhouse movement in The Netherlands with architects like Hendrik Berlage (traditionalism) and Michel de Klerk and Piet Kramer (expressionism).
I particularly like the simplicity and functionalism of those styles.
In this article I want to show you the 1930 style in clothes and furniture through the sometime photographs that I found in the photo albums of my late Aunt Greet and that of my own mom. Looking at the old photographs, my mom was quite fashion minded.
It Was Depression Time in the 1930s
The 1930 are nearly known every bit the era of the Great Depression. I'm sure that the fashion of the 1930s was a result of this low. At that place was no money to spend on fancy clothing, similar in the era before when lots of dresses were busy with jewelry.
The length of the robes went downward over again to simply in a higher place the ankles. The style became more than unpretentious, simpler and homely. It was the fourth dimension of knitted sweaters, vests and even whole dresses.
The colors were rather sober, but despite all that, I notwithstanding call up it'due south one of the most elegant manner periods in the last centuries.
Though when you lot see the videos of 1930 fashion shows yous wouldn't think there was a depression going on, just of course the really rich volition always stay the really rich.

I found these boot shapers in the house of my Aunt Greet and at first I didn't know what they were, until someone mentioned that they might be used to keep tall boots in shape.

After my Aunt Greet passed away in 2005, I had to make clean out her house and I was amazed to notice so many things that she had kept through the years. The business firm was build in 1930 and decorated with1930 style furniture (Art Deco and Amsterdam School) and it had never been inverse since then.
She had kept quite a chip of old photograph albums and had written where and when the photos had been taken, so I but had to pick the ones of the 1930s to become an impression of what people were wearing in that fourth dimension.
First I volition show you some photos of the house itself, because not only the furniture was from the 1930s, but too the kitchen and the bathroom had never been changed.

We take the dining table with chairs, a sideboard, a pocket-size book chest and a tea breast with glass and all the most beautiful Amsterdam School lamps. I've bought an Fine art deco burrow and lounge chairs, so it will wait absolutely gorgeous when information technology'due south done and ready, but that might have another year.
