Dame Barbara Mary Plunket Greene CH DBE FCSD RDI (née Quant; 11 February 1930[2] – 13 April 2023) was a British fashion designer and fashion icon.[3][4] She became an instrumental figure in the 1960s London-based Mod and youth fashion movements.[3][5] She was one of the designers who took credit for the miniskirt and hotpants.[6][7]

Ernestine Carter, an authoritative and influential fashion journalist of the 1950s and '60s, wrote:

"It is given to a fortunate few to be born at the right time, in the right place, with the right talents. In recent fashion there are three: Chanel, Dior, and Mary Quant."
