Designs Through the Decades Part 1

Alice Lane
About this episode
This is something we’ve had on the list to do for a very long time. There’s so much to talk about because we’ve just seen so many things come and go through the ages. We talk about each of the decades and kind of what influenced them to be in fashion at the time. We do this for fashion interiors, and then Cori throws in some things about music that happened at that time and how that relates to fashion or interiors. Your grandparents were likely alive for one of these decades, so you might even be thinking about them at a certain time when we talk about it and remembering grandma’s house, and what it was like.

“They would use steel, glass plywood, and plastic in their creations. While unconventional materials at the time, they fit with the Bauhaus, ethos, and practicality. Ultimately however, the 1920s were all about the bling. People craved luxurious components in their lives, whether it was leather upholstered furniture or a lucite clock. The Jazz Age was majority glamor and glitz.” 30:46
