I remember this show as a kid as every Sunday my mum would kick me and my sister out of the room as she could do the ironing and watch the Clothes Show :D
Yeah I was a kid too when this shit was on, every time I heard this bloody tune it would piss me off cos I knew my mum and sister were occupying the tv for the next hour watching the most boring program on Earth and there was nothing I could do about it! Christ, I hated this program so much!
My uncle used to work on this show and one day he was standing with one of the presenters and someone came up to ask her autograph and they asked for his too, assuming he was famous as well! Great times...
Thank you for this video. This tune has been a childhood memory for so many years but I had no idea where it was from, only thing I knew was it was some ‘fashion theme’ from TV back then. Watched a ‘rewind’ show on tv yesterday about 1986 and it said ‘The Clothes Show’ was a fashion show that debuted that year. I thought hmmm could this have theme I know? And it is! 🤩 all that wondering finally answered
Not a fashion fanatic, but my mum used to watch this, I always loved the theme tune and it was only a few years ago I found out it was PSB that did it. Just like the '86 on tune for TOTP was by Paul Hardcastle, but I knew that at the time as it was in the charts as well. I wish theme tunes for programs now were as interesting, they're either boring or annoying now!
Was listening to “Opportunities” by the Pet Shop Boys and thought it sounded like something from my childhood (like 10yrs). This is it. And I just learned that it is actually by the PSB, but a different song.

This song is on the top of my list of music to make love too. Another bbc theme is at number 2 sports night. And the Wimbledon fortnight music coming in at number 3.
A very delayed response to your comment, but maybe now you already know that this is just a samall edit of the Pet Shop Boys song "In The Night"..if you look for it on youtube yo´ll have all the "longer" parts you like ;)
