The age of Art Deco is one of the most innovative and vibrant periods of textile design when sophisticated and exotic prints dazzled the world and ideas generated by avant-garde artists began to appear in fabrics and fashion. "Art Deco Textiles" provides a visual record of the fabrics which clothed the smart women and furnished the stylish interiors of Europe and America between the years 1910-1939. It is published to coincide with the Art Deco, 1910-1939 exhibition at the V&A. The volume encompasses luxury silks, handblock printed pieces and functional man-made synthetics.
