FWIW, "mauve" was one of the coal-tar dyes developed in the mid-19th century that made eye-wateringly bright clothing fashionable for a few decades.
It was an eye-popping magenta purple
Tumblr media
HOWEVER, like most aniline dyes, it faded badly, to a washed-out blue-grey ...
...which was the color ignorant youngsters in the 1920s associated with “mauve”.
(This dress is labeled "mauve" as it is the color the above becomes after fading).
Tumblr media
They colored their vision of the past with washed-out pastels that were NOTHING like the eye-popping electric shades the mid-Victorians loved. This 1926 fashion history book by Paul di Giafferi paints a hugely distorted, I would say dishonest picture of the past.
Tumblr media
Ever since then this faded bluish lavender and not the original electric eye-watering hot pink-purple is the color associated with the word “mauve”.

Modern interpretation of Art Deco style. The GeeBee racers are flying a bit too close to the Chrysler Building but still a nice effect.

1920 Art Deco Sunburst design, Le Bonheur du Jour, by George Barbier. 
A sunburst is a design or figure commonly used in architectural ornaments and design patterns and possibly pattern books. It consists of rays or "beams" radiating out from a central disk in the manner of sunbeams. Sometimes part of a sunburst, a semicircular or semi-elliptical shape, is used. Traditional sunburst motifs usually show the rays narrowing as they get further from the centre; from the later 19th century they often get wider, as in the Japanese Rising Sun Flag, which is more appropriate in optical terms.

Friday, June 23.
Art Deco.
Everything must be Deco, dahling.
Fashion comes and goes, but style is forever, someone once said. Somewhen. In fact, this quote is attributed to a few different sources: Yves Saint Laurent, and Coco Chanel, among others. If no one is claiming attribution, we would happily take the credit in the spirit of finders-keepers. 
"Fashion comes and goes, but style is forever."
—Tumblr Staff. 
Got a certain ring, don't you think? In any case, we are taking this Friday, June 23 to celebrate one of those aforementioned eternal visual styles, #art deco, daaahling. We couldn't help but notice you fine folk of the dashboard enjoying this same style—what the French so Frenchly call, Arts Décoratifs, following the 1925 Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes (International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts) held in (where else?) Paris. Daaaaaaaaaaaahling! 
We will bid you a Merry Friday and hope to catch you at tonight's Great Gatsby-style event. You know, the extravagant one at the Art Deco-y place in, uh... Noo Yawk. Everyone is going to be there.
Daaaaaaaaahlings x
