She was the first female licensed pilot in the United States, and she was also the first female to fly across the English Channel. She was also a fashion icon in a way - While male pilots wore drab flight wear, she designed her own (purple) aviation outfit complete with a hood which she wore whenever she flew. She was, as I understand it, quite attractive.

Did Harriet quimby have a favorite colour?

Purple. Her flight suits- some different weights for different seasons- were all purple, very striking. These suits were constructed of satin backed with wool (for warmth) and accessorized by high-heeled, lace-up boots, jewelry - Harriet was fond of fancy cloisonné - and topped off with a hood. The suit was one of the very first purpose-designed flight suits and became her trademark.
