Mini Skirts
Skirts reached their shortest lengths ever in the
1960s and 1970s with hems up to the thighs.
Both Mary Quant and André Courrèges are
credited with being the “mother” and
“father” of the mini skirt as they simultaneously
introduced styles in their collections. When
midi and maxi style skirts became popular in
the ‘70s, many women resisted the style
fearing it was a hindrance on the expansion
of women’s rights and freedom of expression.
In modern times, the mini skirt remains
popular. Common in everyday wear and
evening party attire, the mini skirt could be a
jean skirt, a body con style, or even a dressier
satin sheath like these in the recent Wayne

Trapeze Silhouettes

tapered point at the shoulders that
expanded into a large, loose circular

Many women today continue to wear

seen in the Missoni collection from the
