This is the catalogue of the important exhibition dedicated to Wanda Miletti Ferragamo, which focuses on female empowerment in various domains from the 1960s onwards.
This is the catalogue of the Women in Balance exhibition held at the Museo Salvatore Ferragamo in Florence. The project arose as a tribute to Wanda Miletti Ferragamo, who guided the Salvatore Ferragamo company from 1960 until her death in 2018.
The volume aims to tell the story of women who have been able to balance the affirmation of their personality with their family roles as mothers and wives during the years of the Italian “economic miracle” and beyond. The story of Wanda’s life is accompanied by the voices of women from science, culture, and spectacle who embodied their time and helped to shape it.
Focus is placed on women who have been pioneers in their field (politics, literature, photography, cinema, art, music, business, science and technology). This catalogue aims to trigger reflections on gender relations in contemporary society and the balance needed to reconcile women’s private lives with their passions and professional aspirations.
