[Luxus+ Magazine] The mini-skirts that marked the history of cinema

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

For six years now, June 6th has been World Miniskirt Day. The reason why the mini-skirt will be in the limelight all over the world this Sunday is because of the strong symbolism it represents.

 

Synonymous with women’s liberation, the mini-skirt is one of the manifestations of the evolution of women’s clothing habits.

 

For the record, we owe the creation of this essential garment to the English stylist, Mary Quant, which was developed and popularised in the early 1960s. The first, marketed in 1962 in her London Bazaar shop, was originally designed for “women who had to run behind a bus”. She wanted to create a garment that was less restrictive to wear.
