女设计师为我们共同的物质文化和建筑环境作出了巨大贡献。然而，尽管有几位先锋人物获得了全球的认可——仅举几例：Ray Eames, Florence Knoll Bassett和Charlotte Perriand——但还有一些其他设计师，虽然没那么知名，但对设计历史有着同等程度的影响力。

本书介绍了过去100年来在时装、纺织品、平面设计和产品设计，以及建筑领域的几位主主力，揭开了一段女性稳居中心的历史。

本书收录了100多位女性设计师的个人资料，每份资料都附有一篇富含信息量而权威的文章，并用她们非常出名的作品作为插图，是所有设计专业的学生和从业人员的灵感源泉。

Women designers have made an immense contribution to our shared material culture and built environment. However, while several pioneers have achieved global recognition-Ray Eames, Florence Knoll Bassett, and Charlotte Perriand to name a few-there are others not so well known but equally influential to the history of design.

This book introduces the principal players in the areas of fashion, textiles, graphic and product design, and architecture from the last 100 years, and uncovers a history with women firmly at the center.

Featuring profiles on more than 100 women designers, each accompanied by an informative and authoritative text, and illustrated by iconic works, this book is an inspirational focus for all design students and practitioners.
