MARY QUANT (THE MINISKIRT)

Mary Quant is a British fashion designer, one of the many designers who took credit for inventing the miniskirt and hot pants.

Skirts had been getting shorter since about 1958 – a development Mary Quant considered to be practical and liberating. 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.
