White shift dress of Jean Shrimpton

 * ... that English model Jean Shrimpton (pictured) caused a global sensation by wearing a daring white minidress to Derby Day in Melbourne, Australia, on 30 October 1965?
 * Reviewed: Manor Park, Sutton
 * Comment: DYK should be published on 30 October, the 49th anniversary of the event, ideally at around 0600 GMT, so that it is visible during daylight in the UK and early evening in eastern Australia.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg I know this nom was only JUST listed, but I've been aware of this article for a while and been keeping an eye on it. Apart from a tiny quibble about Quant inventing the mini which I've addressed myself, I see absolutely no problems with it - everything is appropriately cited and as it's a subject that falls within my personal area of specialism, I feel confident in saying Good to go already.
