This included boots, goggles, and dresses three inches above the knee. The main features of his boxy, uncluttered look spread quickly throughout the fashion world, especially the miniskirt, which he introduced to France. He had his greatest time in the 60’s and 70’s when he was know for this refreshing new look.
