Britain has contributed too much inspiration to the mainstream fashion world, and the British style has always been a model of hipsters. If I had to choose the most eye-catching British clothes, I would never try to find them from the high-end clothes of Burberry and alexander mcqueen or the photos of celebrities walking down the red carpet. I will point to a kid licking an ice cream cone and carrying a schoolbag in the street and say? Well, only his school uniform. ? Yes, walking on the streets of England, Prada the Devil is not as eye-catching as the various school uniforms worn by students. Whether children in kindergarten or adults in universities, when tuxedos, smart vests, trousers and plaid skirts appear, they can't help but cast envious eyes. Especially as an international student from Chinese mainland, this is a natural expression of true feelings!

It is said that Britain is the first country in the world to have school uniforms. It has a history of at least nearly 500 years and first appeared in Henry VIII. At that time, school uniforms were all blue, because blue symbolizes modesty, and the British thought that this color could help children to be modest from an early age; Of course, blue cloth was cheaper at that time, which was also an important reason. It is said that in the19th century, Queen Victoria had a whim and changed the navy uniform into a style that can be worn by little princes and princesses. Princes and nobles followed suit and customized new clothes for their children. This is the prototype of today's British aristocratic school uniforms? No wonder English school uniforms are so noble!

But in fact, the competition between aristocratic schools later ran counter to the original intention of unifying school uniforms in Britain. The original intention is to use uniform clothing to reflect social justice and balance the psychological gap of children from poor families, but in the end, the differentiation of school uniforms has become the embodiment of the identity of different social classes in Britain. Especially the well-known private school Eton College, a school uniform costs more than 2,000 pounds. On important occasions, students need to wear tuxedos in evening dress ceremony style, and usually tailor-made suits and vests. The school strives to cultivate students' gentlemanly manners.

At present, almost every school in Britain has its own unique school uniform (some schools also encourage students to design their own school uniforms), and many school uniforms will draw school badges to show the initial direction of the school. We can judge which school students belong to according to their uniforms. Basically, boys' suits and ties and girls' dresses and stockings are all in the style of royal gentlemen and ladies.

Nowadays, the style of school uniforms in Britain has been imitated by many countries, but the social stratification and status symbol functions of school uniforms are still preserved only in Britain. The school uniforms of British students fully reflect the changes of British history, politics and customs in terms of color, texture, style and design, so some people say that the school uniforms in Britain are a history of social changes. British school uniforms have always kept a low-key and aristocratic tradition and are considered to be the most orthodox school uniforms. ? Academic spirit? It is a fashion summary of British school uniforms, which promote British fashion.
