About MeLadies' floral cotton one-piece culotte suit with a bold abstract floral pattern in turquoise, yellow, blue, white, orange, and black. The bright colours and large abstract floral designs make this suit instantly recognisable as being from the sixties. Designers like Mary Quant heralded the idea of 'young' fashion away from the constrictions of their parents' conventional dress, producing inventive designs, patterns, and shapes.
