Young Red Haired Girl Reveals In A Blue Miniskirt In The Sand

Until 1960s
From the ancient Greek tunic until the military tunic of Roman times, the very short tunic was exclusively worn by slaves and fighters. In the Middle Ages they were worn under the armour.
During her theatre performances in the Folies Bergère in Paris in 1926, Joséphine Baker wore a sort of miniskirt made from bananas.
In the 1950s, they could be seen in the science fiction films Devil Girl from Mars and Forbidden Planet.
