who popularized the mini skirt in the 60s
Miniskirt The miniskirt is one of the garments most widely associated with Mary Quant.[28] Quant herself is ambivalent about the claim that she invented the miniskirt, stating that her customers should take credit, as she herself wore very short skirts, and they requested even shorter hemlines for themselves.[29] Regardless of whether or not Quant invented the miniskirt, it is widely agreed that she was one of its highest-profile champions.[25][27][30] Quant loved Mini Cooper cars and named the garment after them, saying that car and skirt were both "optimistic, exuberant, young, flirty," and complemented each other.[23]
