Fashion Neurosis with Bella Freud · Stephen Jones · 3 Jun 2026 podcast

It was this magical box where all this stuff came from.

And it just seemed to be so much more interesting than,

church or anything my parents said because do you remember a piece of clothing that you became obsessed with as a child i don't know as a child i'm not really sure i mean because i wore school uniforms

when I was at prep school and school uniform when I was at boarding school.

I suppose I wasn't obsessed with our school boat or anything like that.

I was obsessed with, I guess, I mean, music became my obsession.

And I remember buying the Roxy Music albums in 1972 when they came out.

And I was completely disowned by all my friends who thought it was girls' music.

Then it was very uncool because I, I mean, a few of my friends sort of then took on board David Bowie and Rocks Music, but a boys' boarding school in Liverpool did not really entertain eyeliner.

And they were all into, I don't know, heavy rock.

And Amanda Lear,

They weren't interested in that.

I don't know, thought it was a threat or thought it was a joke or something.

So not that I wanted to, or I thought possibly I could dress like Brian Ferry or Auntie Mackay, but...

I was obsessed by their clothes.

And I remember buying a pair of loons.

For those of you who are under 200 years old, a pair of loons.

Loons were very flared trousers.

And the best place to buy them

was out of the back of either Melody Maker or New Musical Express.
