    I remember the never ending search as a 14 year old girl in 1969 to find Trevira suits in a colour non of my mates already had and tights with the patterns going up the sides of the legs in a pattern/colour combo no-one else had .I didnt get my first Dm's until my 20's because they didn't make them small enough then for my tiny feet but I had a pair of black loafers shown in the film with SEGS bashed into the soles so they made a noise/sparks as I walked down the street ! A Brutus shirt and Gingham perfume completed the outfit !

    At school in the late 70s and early 80s, I had my loafers, my RAF surplus canvas school bag with Madness, Specials and Bad Manners logos drawn on it in marker and when the Walkman came out, journeys on the school bus became bearable listening to bootleg Madness and Specials tapes my mates and I shared. Now in my 50s, I remember those great days with fondness.

  • 1969 I was 12 years old my brother and mates were all skins, spent my Saturdays in Philips Reading spending my hard earned paper/milk round money on Fred Perry shirts 3 button collar pleat and hanger back. Saved up and with my Birthday/Christmas present money I bought a petrol blue grey tonic suit and a down payment on a Crombie, with red pocket hankie and tie pin, I had to wait another six months for a pair of ox blood loafers tassel front. Good times.
