History of the Mini
Today we will talk about miniskirts, or rather will look at how they have evolved over time, from the moment of their appearance until today.
Actually it is very interesting to see because fashion has a tendency to return

Marilyn Monroe, in 1947, dresses to take Hollywood by storm
A short white tennis dress with buttons down the front and a lace bodice, circa 1950
Ava Gardner, in 1955, kneels on an ottoman wearing a strapless minidress
British actress and model Jane Birkin wearing a knitted mini-dress
Barbara Eden shows her patriotic side in 1965
A model wears a bold print beach dress in 1966
British actress Charlotte Rampling on the set of 1967's "The Long Duel."
