Twiggy was the swinging 60′s top model and is still going strong as the face of Marks and Spencer, a mid price range UK high street shop. She has recently pronounced that only the very thin or the very young can get away with wearing a mini-skirt. So, where does that leave the rest of us mere mortals?
