The Wicked (1964)
Start the Vietnam War, the explosion of the Pop Art, Martin Luther King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and Mary Quant invented the miniskirt. To wear and Twiggy: first supermodel teen-agers (17 years) also portrayed by the newly Polaroid camera.
Born in London in 1934, Mary Quant since '55 opened the boutique in the capital of Anglo-Saxon Bazaar in Kings Road, founding a very young, rebellious and democratic with the Beatle (1965) was a key element of Swinging London. Of '66, however, is the birth of Mary Quant cosmetics brand name with a daisy that anticipates the flower children. For years
Courreges in '64 that had made short dresses and trapeze lines will claim the copyright of the mini. But perhaps the truth lies in a sentence of Mary Quant, "The real creators of the mini are the girls, the same that you see on the street." The fact is that mini will suit Florinda Bolkan, the barefoot singer Sandie Shaw and the model Veruschka, icons of those years.
