No. 13 – THE MOTHER OF THE MINI
The Woman Who Invented the Sixties

She opened her boutique Bazaar on King's Road in 1955 with a pair of scissors and a belief that fashion belonged to the young. By 1965, Mary Quant had done what no Paris couturier dared: she raised hemlines above the knee, invented the miniskirt, and declared that a girl's legs were the most beautiful accessory in the world. Her mod designs—bold geometric prints, PVC raincoats, and Vidal Sassoon haircuts—turned Carnaby Street into the center of the universe. While the old guard clung to couture, Quant was designing for the teenager who danced until dawn. This Pop Art homage captures her at the epicenter of the Youthquake: Ben-Day dots, comic book bursts of color, a miniskirted model in geometric black-and-white, and the irrepressible energy of a decade that refused to grow old. The year reads 1965—when a dress got shorter and the world got younger.
