玛丽•匡特——迷你裙的发明者——的自传最初出版于1966年“摇摆伦敦”的高峰期。1955年，她开创性的精品店Bazaar在伦敦的国王路开业，之后匡特凭借其与现代都市生活完美融合的风格风趣的品牌蜚声国际。她处于时尚民主化——旨在消除虚荣，“让每个人都能穿上时髦服装。”——的最前沿。她令人快乐、引人联想的自传描绘了让她找到灵感的世界——最终她也帮助了这个世界去定义，去改变。

The autobiography of Mary Quant—the inventor of the miniskirt—was originally published in 1966 at the height of Swinging London. After opening her groundbreaking boutique Bazaar on London’s King’s Road in 1955, Quant soared to international fame with her brand of witty style that fitted perfectly with modern city life. She was at the forefront of fashion’s democratization—seeking to eliminate snobbery and “make fashionable clothes available to everyone.” Her joyful, evocative autobiography captures the world in which she found inspiration—and which she ultimately helped to define and change.
