Mary Quant

[lankeela]

has died at 93.

[jno]

one of the 1960s Brits who were absolutely world-famous (in fact 1950s, but I think the 60s were her real era). Those were the days.

Oh I honestly didn't see you post Barry - but great minds

Oh dear - that's made me realise that I am, in fact, old!
R.I.P. Mary - I wish I knew where my pair of your stockings are and thank you for necessitating the use of tights, much more comfortable.
