Her life, her ideas, her style touched (and still touch) everyone.\n\nMary Quant is fashion. She was the revoltuion, the turning point, the yardstick. She broke the mould: young women no longer had to be Daddys Girl, or the dutiful, acquiescent partner. Mary Quant encouraged them to be themselves in every aspect of their lives, whether sexual, social or professional. As Helen Lazares of Elle magazine once said to her: \"You have changed everything.\"\n\nMost people connect Mary with one thing - the mini skirt - that ground-breaking design that is as potent now as it was when if first appeared in the early sixties. But her influence carried way beyond those early frenetic black-and-white years. Her revolutionary stance, her ability to innovate, her endlessly imaginative eye have been brought to bear on almost every aspect of fashion and design.\n\nMary Quants memoir is written in her own inimitable style - a witty, unique account of her whirlwind life, how she started, where she came from, her unconventional, brilliant husband, the battles shes had, the triumphs, the disasters, the models, the photographers, the love of her gardens, the impossibility of her dogs.\n\nIt is a story like no other.\nBut then there is only one Mary Quant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Headline Book Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44944944463925,"sku":"ByrdShop_0755360176","price":90.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780755360178_ecff9a67-8569-47ab-9866-6537cdc0d1bd.jpg?v=1778862669","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mary-quant-autobiography-9780755360178","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
