The miniskirt, for which she is most famous, became one of the defining fashions of the 1960s. The designers who adapted the miniskirt just helped spread the style, but Mary Quant gave it a name. Mary Quant named the miniskirt for her favorite make of car, the Mini; she loved this car so much and she had one designed especially for her.
