Mary Quant was a fashion designer from Britain.

She designed the mini skirt in the 1960s.

She died in April.

Now, there's an exhibition in Glasgow, Scotland.

It shows Quant's work.

Heather Tilbury Phillips worked with Quant.

For lots of people, Quant's clothes 'are' the 1960s.

Things started to change at that time.

The second world war was in the past.

The 1960s was a time for teenagers.

Quant let young people wear different clothes.

Before then, they looked like their parents.

Quant designed short skirts and dresses.

She used fresh colours and designs.

And she used new material for her clothes.

Rebecca Quinton is from Glasgow Museums.

The exhibition's on a world tour.

Glasgow is the last stop.

The exhibition will finish in Autumn 2023.

Quinton hopes young designers will go to the show.
