Abstract: The Bauhaus movement, spanning over a century, left an indelible mark on design, particularly through the contributions of female designers. This study explores the influence of Bauhaus women, such as Gunta Stölzl, Anni Albers, and Lilly Reich, who focused on textiles, children’s goods, and household accessories. Their emphasis on simplicity, practicality, and emotional expression, characterized by vivid colors and geometric shapes, continues to inspire contemporary fashion labels like byFANG and ZI II CI IE. ByFANG seamlessly blends Anni Albers’s artistic features with geometric pleats, while ZI II CI IE celebrates the Bauhaus ethos with multifunctional items exalting female strength. This analysis draws on literature reviews, historical research, and biographical studies to underscore the enduring impact of these female designers on the Bauhaus movement and their ongoing influence on modern fashion.
