RIP The Rev
I find this topic to be interesting as it seems his fashion at this time was a bit diverse. This pic shows him dressing a bit older than he should have. (but still with the natural grace to make it look hot)
But on the album cover, he was sporting jeans. Although he was a fan of jeans in the Smiths days, it seems as he gets older he wears them less and less. Perhaps during this time period, he was trying to find a balance between a youthful look and a more mature look?

I don't remember him dressing like that on the Maladjusted tour. It looks more 2000s-ish to me.

Oh, trust me - that's TOTAL Maladjusted tour gear. It's from the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, October 12, 1997.

in 2000 he was all about the jeans with paint on them and the west ham boys club t shirts.
In 97' he was all about the gucci as I recall in a couple interviews he did at the time he was really talking gucci up,in one of them I recall him talking about the jacket he wearing was "made by gucci's grandmother herself"

It's interesting that the sleek look he had during the Maladjusted tour was so at odds with the scruffy photo on the album cover (possibly the worst publicity shot of Moz ever taken).
At the time I missed the Vauxhall-Southpaw style, but looking back now it was very international playboy and better than Quarry. 2000 was really casual -- again I preferred the big E LEvis of Vauxhall to the paint-splattered Gucci jeans. And the West Ham t-shirt wore out its welcome quick.
Most of his clothes now are quite good -- and the tux really suits him at his age now. He looks so cool on the cover of the single for The Youngest...

did he borrow those breeches from an oversize leprachaun?

The high waistline and silk shirt are bordering on Johnny Stompanato Vegas mob style but he gets away with it.
I like the jeans/blazer look, too especially in Introducing Morrissey and the video for Dagenham Dave. Again, it's a look that some can't get away with (and may recall images of Jerry Seinfeld), but Moz looked great in his too-small Stanley Baker jacket.
Speaking of Baker, how about the below look for our kid??

No shit. I remember rushing to the record store the day it was released, but then feeling really crestfallen with not only the pic, but the entire CD packaging, courtesy of Mercury Records. I didn't care for the music or the tour, either, but I've since come around on the music.
True. Even better on "I Just Want to See the Boy Happy," if not for the gesture.
the more you explore me!

This particular era of Moz fashion is a sad one. I feel like he was (due to something going on within his life) trying to shed himself. He lost the quiff and started dressing drastically different then ever before. Sad, sad, period...

Hideous trait.
I like the 40s retro thing. I'm very interested to see what look he will do next. I can't imagine he'll go more casual if he's seen wearing wool socks and suit jackets in New Jersey in July.
I would love to see him in a really good summer linen suit with a proper Panama hat... there is only one place in the world to get a good Panama: http://www.optimohats.com/thecompany.htm

I think he was growing into the style that he has now. He had to go through an "awkward" transitioning period in order to be so perfectly put together now.

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Like most advertising on most sites I go to I ignore it... It is necessary and some people must actually click one of those banners from time to time otherwise the advertisers would not spend their money supporting the site. A more interesting question is "who ARE these people" and what did they actually buy from the site linked to the banner?
