I plan on a post soon listing all of the vintage designers with biographical info and photos illustrating their contributions to fashion. Not enough contemporary ladies know about Ceil Chapman or Adele Simpson. You are six feet tall?! We must make a meet up group together of fashion giants! Thank you Yanique!

Like you Sammy, I would have needed to make my own skirt as my 6 feet tall, but scandalous isn't so bad most of the times:-) xx <a href="http://www.trendsettervintage.com" rel="nofollow">Trendsetter Vintage</a> Great to see you mentioning Courreges, definitely one of my FAVE vintage designers.

If you notice in some of my modern examples of girls wearing mini skirts, a mini dress slipped into the mix, with the white pleated skirt. I would have to ask those who lived the era to be certain, but I believe both were conceived and popularized parallel to one another, however perhaps different styles of "mini dresses" were popular at one time over the other.
