Book excerpt: "Mary Quant is a fashion icon. The first focussed study of her career, this book shows how she revolutionised fashion, harnessing youth, streetstyle and mass production to create a new look for everyone. The book surveys the development of her business in the context of British, European and American fashion in the post war period, and explores how her innovative marketing created a powerful global brand.0Featuring new photography of Quant garments, alongside previously unpublished fashion photographs and designs, this book forms a dynamic and authoritative account of Mary Quant and her legacy."--Publisher's description.
