just been having a tidy up and came across this on one of my quo books, must of been used as a book mark. I remember having the jeans and the waist coat...not sure if out else was made. We had an ex catalogue shop that sold stuff like that, don't remember seeing them in any other shops. Wish I still had the demin....guarantee it wouldn't fit but would love to see what it looked like.  |

I had a pair of "Quo" jeans back in the day. Long time ago. I'd guess about 1980 or so, so maybe older than the denim here given Pete Kircher in is the image. Got them out of a bargain clothes shop called "What Every Woman Wants" although it sold stuff for blokes as well.
I didn't wear them all that much. They were very 'skinny' on the leg. And I wished I'd kept them. Or at least the label on the waistband.

Very cool. Not something I've ever seen anywhere, and I say that as somebody who looks in charity shops for old 501's
Somebody must have more info. An order form will no doubt have gone out with the fan club at some point

The logos on the left hand pocket and metal button are what my jeans had. But it was certainly before the days of Pete Kircher, so they must have carried on marketing the denim wear. I didn't realise. Not that I'd have bought that waistcoat in the mid 80's. I was all perm, ankle warmers and fatigues  Nice find though 👍 |

Never mind Quo denim, I've just had to Google ankle warmers 😆👍

Experienced not long ago a (support) band who fit this nicely, all dressed down, right down to the ripped knees in one case, all committing moody drones endlessly through the set. Not quite arm-knawing-off dreadfulness, but I cheered prematurely when I thought they had finished the last song (there was another one).
The singer of the actual headliner was not dressed in gold lame, leather or fake tiger. It looked more like an elaborate pair of 1970s patterned floral tights extended to the shoulders, topped with a bikini, and he rocked it! Also, he only used the word 'excited' once, while making his thank you London speech. We may go again.
