Art
What is art? Art can refer to a diverse range of human activities and artifacts and may be used to cover all or any of the arts, including music, literature and other forms. Art is also able to illustrate thought and its expressions can draw out previously hidden emotions in its audience. It is most often used to refer specifically to the visual arts which are including media such as painting, sculpture and printmaking.
Type of Art Movement
There are various different type of art movement in the late 19th century and early 20th century which are including Art Nouveau, Constructivism, Cubism, Art Deco, Modernism, Bauhaus and Futurism.
The Language of Contemporary Fashion
Clothing is a language which is a kind of communication through its symbol conveys much about the wearer to the viewer. Their clothing will make a statement that expresses their sex, age, status, occupation, origin and personality before people speak to one another. In the meanwhile, clothing will also convey that what they are or what they want to be at a particular moment. For example, a businessman is recognized in a well tailored suit.
Exploring to Art in Fashion in 1850-1939
In the late nineteenth-century fashion as we know is inspired by the avant-garde artists of the period to create an art form to counter commercial fashion. These avant-garde artists saw clothing not just a symbol of class distinction but also a force for shaping experience, looking for opportunity to make things new and going beyond the traditional boundaries of art.
Art Nouveau
Art Nouveau is also known as the “New Art” which is an artistic style freed from all illusionists, symbolic or representational function. It was influenced by Post-Impressionism. Art Nouveau is an international design movement that emerged and touched all of the design arts such as architecture, fashion, furniture, graphic and product design.
Art Nouveau movement started in
Alphonse Mucha was a well known Czech painter, poster artist and designer who born in 1860. He contributed greatly to the Art Nouveau movement. He was well known in interwined and curved forms, depictions of wild plant life, and his expressions of women in paintings. Below was an art piece of a feminine figure by Mucha. The feminine figure in the art piece looks very erotic and nature in forms.

The building was used with floral and organic forms to create Art Nouveau movement.

Curvy floral forms were used on the stained glasses design. This gives erotic and aesthetic design to houses.
Art Deco
Art Deco was a popular international design movement from 1925 until 1939. It was affecting the decorative arts in architecture, interior design, industrial design and visual arts such as fashion, painting, graphic arts and film. Art Deco was influenced by
Early Art Deco (1911-1929)
Between 1911 and 1919, dress forms moved to a narrow, relaxed, almost semi-fitted silhouette reminiscent of the Directorie and Empire period. Although many women continued the habit of wearing corsets, the tubular clothing silhouette no longer required it. Hemlines also began to climb from ankle length in 1910 to mid-calf in 1919 and all the way up to the knee in 1925. The waistline essentially disappeared. Before 1919, it was high, just below the bust line but in 1920 it had settled at the hips.
During the early 1930s, hemlines dropped again to just above the ankles and no longer dresses were again in vogue for evening wear. For the evening wear, the bared back was the new erotic zone of replacing the legs of the 1920s.

I tried to identify Art Deco from the early century costumes as previous subtopic. On the other hand, another way to identify Art Deco movement is from architecture buildings design and stained glasses design of doors and windows.
