Klaus Kinski was paid £900 for 10 days work.
The film was shot in a house in Kensington because they didn't have the money for a studio. But director Gerry O'Hara felt that made the whole thing much more realistic.
Producer Raymond Stross liked the dialogue of one of writer/director Gerry O'Hara's other scripts and asked to read anything else the writer-director had. Stross suggested O'Hara write something set in Chelsea, so he wrote the script A Time and a Place which became The Pleasure Girls. O'Hara hated the title and the title music because it had nothing to do with the film. Yet he still felt the movie "came out rather good."
When Sally and her friend are looking in the window of Mary Quant's boutique "Bazaar" in the King's Road, Chelsea, the camera briefly cuts to show Smith Street on the opposite side of the road. The house closest to the corner with the Volkswagen Beetle parked outside was occupied between 1946 and 1962 by P.L. Travers who wrote "Mary Poppins".
Reportedly, an alternate version of a party scene was filmed with brief nudity that only appears in the export print.
