We're sure many of you have notice the distinct 1920's and art deco vibe that's been creeping into this spring's fashions. Characterized by arching lines and stylized geometric shapes, art deco designs can create a flattering path for the eye to follow across the body. Dropped waists, rectangular silhouettes, and that classic flapper-esque fringe abound as well. Here are some of our favorites from the S/S 2012 runways:
 |
| Drop-waists/embellishments/art deco lines from Roberto Cavalli |
 |
| Flapper fringe and rectangular silhouettes from Mark Fast |
 | |
| Art deco lines and rectangular silhouettes from Alberta Ferretti |
 |
| Art deco lines via print and embellishment and rectangular silhouettes from Etro |

| More art deco lines, drop-waists, rectangular silhouettes, and fringe. L-R: BCBG Max Aria, Versace, and Gabriele Colangelo |
