Colorful socks with patterns, or what surprises art déco style
After Bauhaus socks, the time has come to create new socks inspired by the world of art. Art déco socks are the quintessence of the popular style. When you think of art déco, what associations first come to mind? For us, it's all about playing with geometric forms. In our latest collection you will find three models of socks, and each of them is a variation on the art déco aesthetic. In addition, the models have been designed so that they could be mixed and matched with each other to form completely new and surprising pairs. You can choose to buy a single pair, but also an entire set that includes all three models. Art déco is famous not only for its bold geometric patterns, but also for its strong colors. In the socks, the dominant shade is blue, which is perfectly combined with elements in black and white. Art déco socks fit perfectly into any styling. They look great when paired with jeans, but they look equally good when paired with elegant pants or even a dress. It's only up to you which variation you bet on!
What are the characteristics of the art déco style?
The name of the art déco style is derived from the French words art (art) and décoratif (decorative). The very translation of these words indicates the direction this style has taken. In the art world, we very often see opposition to the rules of the current style. That is why the history of history alternates between a love of order and a preference for chaos. The same principle also applies to putting either rational or emotional thinking on a pedestal. At the turn of the 20th century, the art world was dominated by the Art Nouveau style, in which abstraction and asymmetry played an important role. A natural consequence of this seemed to be the emergence of an aesthetic in which symmetrical geometric patterns prevailed, and the elements of art were to play a utilitarian role. The art déco style was most successful during the interwar period. At that time, designers placed particular emphasis on the implementation of industrial design. It was believed that both objects and the way they were arranged had a significant impact on human functioning. Therefore, all accessories were to be useful, and at the same time aesthetic. Efforts were made to geometrize designs and give them symmetry. Chaos was rejected as an element that shows a negative effect on humans. Although art was supposed to be widely available, high-end materials meant that not everyone could afford art déco items. Fortunately, our art déco socks combine the most important tenets of the style along with a favorable price, so a colorful pair can become part of your closet.
