Inspired by that photo of Brian Jones ....
All things fashion and style in music, though preferably songs about it. Any era.
Here's one to start, Zoot Suit

Riffing off of zoot suit... One of the things "Quadrophenia" does right is to focus on the teenage obsession with fashion. It gets pushed to and over existing limits on "5:15"
"He man drag
In the glittering ballroom
Gravely outrageous
In my high heel shoes"

The first line of "Caroline, No" highlights how a fashion trend can pull people apart if they run with different crowds. I don't know of many other songs that take that angle.
"Where did your long hair go?/Where is the girl I used to know?"

Poor Morrissey. He probably had a closet full of clothes that would've been fine for that evening, but no one could console him.
