Mary Quant of London
1966 JCPenney Spring Summer Catalog
I saw the William Morris Gallery’s exhibition on women designing textiles for the Liberty brand, and because the Beatles are everywhere, spotted this suit, designed by Mary Quant in 1965, and most famously worn by Jane Asher. (I don’t think this is Jane’s actual suit, just one of the same make). It’s very on-brand for Jane: by a cutting-edge designer, but from Quant’s more affordable range. So it’s youth-oriented and fashion forward, but still relatable. The print works in black and white, while the colour emphasises her hair.
The dress behind it uses a print by Sally Tuffin of the Tuffin & Foale, another Beatle-adjacent brand. Jane wore their clothes, and Pattie’s sister Jenny Boyd was their star model.
A couple of years later, boutiques like Granny Takes A Trip started making men’s suits in this kind of vivid Victorian pattern - most famously, George’s “Golden Lily” jacket.

Quem foi Mary Quant e como a minissaia virou liberdade?
Mary Quant foi a estilista britânica que ajudou a popularizar a minissaia nos anos de 1960. Mas a minissaia não foi apenas uma peça curta, foi uma decisão longa.
Na década de 60, o mundo estava mudando: jovens nas ruas, movimentos civis, questionamento de normas. Quant percebeu que a moda precisava acompanhar essa energia. Ela encurtou a barra e alongou a autonomia.
A minissaia era prática, moderna, jovem e, acima de tudo: era escolha. Pela primeira vez, o comprimento deixava de ser determinado por códigos conservadores e passava a ser definido por quem vestia.
O escândalo não era o tecido, era a liberdade. Críticos chamaram de imoral, pais chamaram de indecente. Mulheres chamaram de sua.
A moda deixou de apenas vestir o corpo e passou a afirmar controle sobre ele.
Não era sobre mostrar pernas. Era sobre mostrar decisão. E talvez seja por isso que, até hoje, cada escolha de comprimento ainda carregue algo simbólico.
Algumas roupas seguem tendência. Outras marcam território.
E, às vezes, uma revolução começa tirando alguns centímetros da barra.
Fashion designer Dame Mary Quant was born on this day [Feb 11] in 1934. She designed this white wool tweed coat-dress with a black check and military-style frogging appliqués, modelled by Marie-France in John Cowan's 1961 photo, 'Stealing a March on the Guards'. V&A collection.
