HISTORY

Mary Quant, one of Britain’s most famous icons in fashion design during the 1960s, born on February 11, 1934 in Blackheath London. Mary Quant has always been into clothes and designing since she was very young. Quant tells a story about when she was young she attempted to create design by cutting up her bedspread. From reading that story I can see the creativity that she had even as a young child. Quant never went to fashion design school, she actually studied fashion illustration at Goldsmiths College of Art.
