Drawers, pantie girdle
Black pantie girdle with Mary Quant's daisy logo, labelled 'Qform for Mary Quant'.
In an article published on 31 January 1967 in The Times (p. 13), Suzy Menkes wrote about Mary Quant that 'probably her greatest contribution to women's fashion has been her pioneering spirit - using her name to persuade manufactureres to produce something necessary to the current fashion image. Light-weight, flesh-coloured underclothes by Youthline and tights and silver stockings by Nylon Hosiery Company have been two of her contributions to the perfection of the "London Look".'
