Fashion victims

Hearty thanks for a marvellous list of songs about films, though I was sorry to see so many fail to recall Roxy Music, a band named after a fondly missed cinema chain. But them's the breaks, writes Sophie Heawood.

As for next week, the Koreans may have just held a World Cup fashion show, but chances are the British will be inspired only to start dressing as giant bananas, so let's have a celebration of style before the footie makes monkeys of us all.

Songs about Farrahs, frocks and socks are all welcome, as are odes to models or movements. Just remember that we've already playlisted All Dressed Up For School by the Beach Boys, Autumn Sweater by Yo La Tengo and Baggy Trousers by Madness, but all your other sartorial suggestions will be welcomed up until 1pm on Monday.

The archive of previous columns is accessible here, and you can also see an A-Z of every single song that has appeared in the weekly playlists.
