Who is credited with popularizing the mini skirt?

Answer Posted / guest

Mary Quant. By 1966 Mary Quant was producing short waist
skimming mini dresses and skirts that were set 6 or 7
inches above the knee. It would not be right to suggest she
invented the mini. In 1965 she took the idea from the 1964
designs by Courr?ges and liking the shorter styles she made
them even shorter for her boutique Bazaar. She is rightly
credited with making popular a style that had not taken off
when it made an earlier debut.
