Scarf, JUDY - purple/white

This design was born out of necessity and gratitude. There are countless women of the past who played a vital role in shaping the world as we know it today. They have contributed an unbelievable amount of knowledge, discovery, and talent in every field throughout history.

Whether their contributions have been ignored, neglected, glossed over, or unfairly forgotten, they were rebels and world-changers of the first order. Many of the women represented in this design also fought for the right for women to determine their own paths.

Wearing this print, you will bring these women along, and give others the opportunity to discover them. They are interesting for their courage, intellectual capacity, perseverance, innovation, public service, excellence, audacity, fight for freedom...

You will find pirates, adventurers, artists, scientists, activists or inventors like:

• Alice Guy – the first person film director in history, inventor of cinematographic fiction and narrative cinema
• Fatima Al Firhi – founder of the oldest university in the world
• Lilian Bland – journalist, pioneer aviator who designed, built and flew her own plane
