Mod or Modernist, a subculture originated in London in the late 1950s to mid 1960s.

Twiggy Lawson, 1960s. Since Teddy boys and Beatniks had already paved the way in fashion during that era, Mod also adopted some of the past fashion. Tailored jackets with narrow lapels and military parkas were worn by men. Some men would even put on eyeshadow and eyeliner. For women, printed/color-blocked dresses and mini-skirts with flat shoes were very popular and they would put little makeup.

Missoni pre-fall 2008; the whole collection was inspired by mod sixties. Minidress with black stocking could be seen throughout the 1960s.

Oscar de la Renta resort 2007, polka dots prints were very popular among mod style. This street trend usually incorporated mini-dress or mini-skirt with op art prints. The look seemed to be inspired by the famous fashion icon, Twiggy.
