What a marvelous lady !!! Amazing dress by her !!! Grooooovy stuff, I must say. One way or another I shall be back from my well-deserved vacation in a fortnight or so. Cheerio !!!
Interesting that JCPenney of all places were the first in the US to work with a cutting edge designer like Miss Quant. Quite the opposite of a hip Carnaby Street boutique. One wonders how she found the experience of catering to the middle American customer while still retaining her unique vision.
Phyllis Newman ( one of those ladies who always makes me wish i was her) and Tony Randall are so gracious to Miss Quant! They are so in tune with the zeitgast!
tony randall's comment about "pretending to catch a bus" was something mary quant had previously said about the mini skirt liberating women's movement. very interesting moment in time. a changing of the generations. the mini skirt and rock was in, and wml had about a year left in the era of prime-time game shows.
Just a thought about the comment below. 'her hair was ahead of it's time'.. the style was merely a slight adaptation of twenties styles, so in effect it was a revival of the past.
The charm of this show is that it's almost as if the panel are friends of yours, and you are playing the game along with them A simple idea that works very well....
The audience didn't seem to know who she was yet - she's just starting out. I love her hair and dress - all the women eventually started to wear the mini skirts and get their hair cut like that.
People always say this ahead of time BS xD everyone in the 60s looks modern because 60s is birth of modern fashion and modern hairstyles. She looks of her time. Every girl was wearing pixie cuts and geometric bobs in 66
at least Phyllis Newman recognized good styling...even if that simp Randall didn't or pretended not to. there's a lot of interest in sixties fashions among the millennial and gen Z.
Mary Quant the most iconic fashion designer of the 60's. A while since I have heard the word groovy, the was cool! took me back to my youth.
Le pudding et le shetland/David Bailey, Mary Quant.
Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton, first of the supermodels!
Mary was a legend in fashion designing

Excellent detail, nice eye (ear?) spotting that

Mary Quant just died today at 93 years of age. R.I.P.
R.I.P🎉
Thank you for posting!
WML should have blindfolded the panel. That dress was a dead giveaway. RIP Mary Quant
the mutual dissing between John and Bennett went rough on times, but you can tell it all was in good spirit
˝Miss X...you look groovy˝ :D :D lovely video :D

The mini-skirt? I LOVE HER!!!!!
I had a sudden urge to watch the movie Blow-Up.
Mary Quant is really funny😊
Mary Quant just passed away today at 93. [April 13/2023] Peacefully at home of natural causes.
Love Tony's remark on her dress!lol.
She is still living......
@MissMaria10 That sounds wonderful.
Her hair is ahead of her time :)
Madam Abbster
I'm pretty sure that hairstyle started during the 1920s.because of the flapper girls
M Abbster, not at all. Vidal Sassoon was getting famous at much the same time, and he cut her hair, so she was spot on for her time, 60s London.

Funny not seeing her as the Mystery Guest.

@violamateo any consignment shop would snatch up that dress she's wearing in an instant.
RIP
looks like Vidal Sasson worked on her.
Nanette Newman can do a "typical Amrican accent" very well...
When JC Penny was chic!
