Royal dreams in a bold mini skirt. I am unveiling the power of a must-have wardrobe item for any lady looking to channel her inner modern sensibility. Mini skirt is a four-inches above the knee tiny and versatile piece—that sits on top of the details.
Thanks to French fashion designer—André Courréges (1923—2016) and British fashion designer—Mary Quant (1930—2023) for incorporating a modern twist in their work to come up with the statement miniskirt. Their creative spirit is shared by the collective inspirations. Mary Quant for instance—harnessed an idea from short skirts that were worn by tap dancers in London in the 1940s.
Top-notch influencers and celebrities who helped to popularize mini skirts were Vanessa Redgrave (1937—), Charlotte Rampling (1946—), Twiggy (1949—), Marianne Faithfull (1946—). Rebellious young girls in London in the 1960s who called themselves mods favored mini skirts and it was a piece that defined their aesthetic.
For your sartorial lioness that has to do with a mini skirt—here are the ways on how to unleash it.
Wear a miniskirt pair with a crop top featuring high-neckline and long-sleeves. Finish with knee-length boots featuring heels in the same color as your ensemble. This idea is monochromatic.
Wear a miniskirt, pair with a crop top and fishnet. Add a blazer as a layering piece. Finish with chain handbag, chain necklace and classic shoes. This idea points to smart casual.
