I think the aesthetic you’re describing is still avant garde for the 20s and will become the mainstream aesthetic in the 30s. The general mass is stuck in economically beneficial options eg fast fashion, minimalist interiors but left longing for maximalist environments and tailored elaborate fashions (k-pop attire, erte-inspired decorative pieces that celebrate the female figure) that are inaccessible rn so we were left with ill-fitting jeans and sterile interiors but in the past couple years we see the mainstream finding loops around this by thrifting (an ex is the rise in ‘grandma-chic’ recycled style but still not its own now picked up by larger retailers). I think the aesthetic you’re showcasing is aspirational and escapism (and so exciting to see) making it more so the art of our time vs encapsulating the aesthetic but the pendulum will get there as we turn away from overconsumption/fast fashion and prefer smaller niche high-quality brands and AI leaves us with more down time for art appreciation and exploration
