In what foreign online stores can I buy a school uniform?
Hello, dear readers blog Shopoklang!
The school season has not yet ended, the new one is still far away, and one of my good friends is already saddened by the choice of a school uniform for her daughter for the next academic year. He says it’s better to buy now than to spend the whole August in a crowd of shops later. After listening to her stories about last year's ordeal in local stores in search of things for a child's non-standard figure - tall and thin - it was decided to make life easier for mothers and compile a top list of foreign online stores for school uniforms.
By purchasing school uniforms online and in advance, you will save yourself from the August bustle and mass rush in stores on the eve of September 1st. In addition, you should also take into account the delivery time of the order to the Republic of Belarus and take care of the order in a timely manner.

These samples are updated annually and can be found on the website of the Bellegprom concern. For example, .
Models of school uniforms from foreign manufacturers are not approved by anyone, but they differ high quality fabrics and cut, stylish design, convenience and functionality. Don’t be alarmed if you see a mixture of synthetics in the product description on the website! School uniforms are widely sewn from mixtures of natural and synthetic fabrics - this is done in order to make them durable and wrinkle-resistant, and also to withstand the entire school season, maintaining its original appearance.

One in four English schoolchildren don't have to worry about what to wear to class. The solution to this problem has long been the school uniform - an approved set of clothes for boys and girls in Western secondary schools.
IN different times school uniform in different countries looked different. Until recently, pressed jackets and shirts with starched collars, fancy knee socks and strict-length skirts were associated with elite educational institutions for children of wealthy parents. And it’s hard to imagine that school uniforms were originally intended for poor children who had nothing to wear to school at Christ’s Shelter. Their coats were of blue color, since blue dye was the cheapest in the 16th century. Since then, schools in which students wear blue coats have been called Bluecoat schools. But even such a conservative Great Britain tends to abandon certain traditions and styles. So, at the end of the 20th century, in many educational institutions, striped blazers were replaced by plain ones, because “stripes” were too expensive.
And the privileged private school Eton School, where only boys from the richest families or heirs of the royal court can study, abandoned the school uniform in the late 60s. The Eton School student's suit looked like this: a wide white starched collar, a vest and a short black jacket. Today this school uniform is worn in specialized choir schools for boys.
In another private school Sevenoaks School, which is one of the three oldest schools in England, requires all students to wear a uniform. Boys aged 7 to 11 wear blazers and trousers, girls wear blazers and kilts. When children enter sixth grade, they put on special costumes. The form is also provided for play activities. A set of clothes can be purchased in a special school store or on its website.
The American school uniform differs between private and public schools. In regular high schools you rarely see a sundress or a plaid skirt on girls, and blazers on boys. In US public schools, boys most often wear sneakers or sneakers, which is not acceptable in most private schools. In many schools, boys and girls wear a T-shirt and jumper in a specific color with the school logo on it.
In German secondary schools, school uniforms were almost never introduced. In addition, they prefer to call the uniform “clothes for school” (Schulkleidung). For example, in the schools of Hamburg-Sinstorf and Friesenheim, girls and boys wear stylish shirts and sweaters in blue or red. In addition, some German schools produce their own branded clothing, which is both fashionable and honorable to wear.
But students of Italian schools are still forced to dress in long shirts with white collars - grembiuli, which resemble at the same time a nightgown, tunic and robe of an artist. For graduates of Western high schools, the uniform remains forever in the memory. Someone dreams of putting on a jumper with a school badge again or proudly tying a tie, while others, many years later, have nightmares about a terrible, movement-restricting, creepy-colored uniform.
Perhaps the most fashionable school wardrobe today is that of Japanese schoolgirls. Young manga lovers are so delighted with short skirts, white knee socks, and most importantly, “sailor suits” (sera fuku), that they are ready to wear them even outside of school.
Today, school uniforms are incredibly popular among teenagers. The heroes of the Harry Potter films made the school uniform a symbol of being chosen, American comedies showed rebellious schoolboys and schoolgirls, and Japanese anime forced girls all over the world to devote a special place in their closets to skirts, socks and ties. In comfortable and stylish clothes, the learning process becomes even more enjoyable, which is why many boys and girls are happy to put on their school uniform and go to class.
To with my own eyes see how much time the descendants of conservative Englishmen spend dressing up for physical education and how young goths or emos put up with the dress code in Western schools, you can tour American or English high schools. And it’s even better to sit at the same desk with those who managed to give up jeans for a while for the sake of quality education and an interesting pastime.
Do you know how schoolchildren in other countries dress?
We already know firsthand how current schoolchildren of the former huge country dress and what their attitude towards this school uniform is now.
We all have different opinions, we all have different moods, and everyone sticks to their own. And yet, the time when students Ancient Greece they put on a chlamys over their tunics, and Ancient India It was mandatory to wear dhoti hip pants and a kurta shirt even in extreme heat, not that far away. And the tradition of putting on a special uniform, which distinguishes non-student children from students, remains, whatever one may say. Although in Russia XIX centuries, it was not considered shameful to wear a gymnasium uniform after school, and was even encouraged. But... times fly, years pass, and now France, Germany and a good half of Europe have already abolished any form at all, and motley children are carrying colorful backpacks, blowing chewing bubbles.
But still traditions remain and manners remain. Let's see how and what students dress in those countries where school uniforms have not been abolished. Let's see what's unusual about such clothes, or feel nostalgic. And we will see that you can even be proud of “your” school and your school uniform.
In our opinion, it’s not bad at all to have your own style, your own emblem, your own distinction and to be somewhat disciplined in everything.
Japan
In Japan, school uniforms appeared in late XIX century. Nowadays, most private and public schools have school uniforms, but there is no single style and color.
Japanese schoolgirls, 1920, 1921
In the early 20s of the 20th century, the All-Russian Confederation for Women school fashion European-style sailor suits were included. Fans of oriental culture call them in the Japanese manner seifuku or sailor fuku (sailor suit). Such dresses were ordered from a specific manufacturer only for students of a specific school. Sailor suits have been and remain popular in many schools, but they all differ in the details of cut and color.
Often on the Internet you can find images of high school girls in very short uniform skirts. Naturally, uniforms are not made with such short skirts; schoolgirls shorten them themselves. The fashion for short school skirts appeared in the early 90s under the influence of the popular Japanese pop singer Nami Amuro. Basically, tucking it in at the top and pulling it in with a belt, and covering the top of the tuck and belt with a sweater, jacket or vest. In this form, Japanese schoolgirls usually parade from home to school, and before entering the educational institution skirts are lowered to the required length. While in the 70-80s in Soviet schools, young fashionistas (and their mothers) shortened their uniforms forever, cutting off the “extra” length and hemming the hem.
Sri Lanka
In all public and most private schools in Sri Lanka, students wear school uniforms.
The boys' uniform consists of a white short-sleeved shirt and blue shorts (up to 10th grade, about 15 years old). On formal occasions, a white long-sleeved shirt and white shorts are worn. Boys over 10th grade wear trousers instead of shorts.
The school uniform for girls differs from school to school, however, as a rule, it consists entirely of white material. Possible differences: dress with short sleeves or sleeveless, with or without a collar. TO white dress usually a tie is included.
Below is an example of a uniform in a Muslim school in Sri Lanka
Magic purple color and the girls look happy
Butane
The Bhutanese school uniform is a variation of the traditional national dress, called gho for boys and kira for girls. Each school has its own colors.
Cuba
In Cuba, uniforms are mandatory, and not only for schoolchildren, but also for students. By the color of the school uniform you can determine which grade the child is in.
Three main types of form can be distinguished.
Junior classes - burgundy and white. Girls dress in burgundy sundresses and white blouses. Boys wear burgundy trousers with white shirts. Both boys and girls wear scarf ties in the style of those worn by Soviet schoolchildren. True, in Cuba ties are not only red, but also blue.
Middle classes - white top and yellow bottom. For girls these are yellow skirts, and for boys trousers. Girls also wear tall white socks under their sun skirts. This version of the form is for older students.
High school - shades of blue, or rather, blue top and dark blue bottom. Everything is the same for girls - a skirt with a blouse, for boys - a shirt with trousers
North Korea
Students in North Korea similar to Soviet pioneers. The main integral accessory to a school uniform is a red tie, a symbol of the communist movement. There is no uniform standard for the form.
Vietnam
Uniforms in Vietnam may vary depending on the school or area where the school is located. But, as a rule, the most common form is a light top, dark bottom and a red tie in the pioneer style. This uniform is worn by elementary and middle school students. High school girls wear traditional national clothes Aozai (a long silk shirt worn over pants) white. High school students prefer dark pants and white shirts, but without a tie. In remote villages, school uniforms are not worn.
Girls dressed in Ao Dai look very graceful
Traditional clothes are not only beautiful, but also comfortable.
England
In modern England, each school has its own uniform. School symbols and a certain style are widely used here, which distinguish students. Moreover, in prestigious schools in England, uniform is a source of pride. Jackets, trousers, ties and even socks should under no circumstances deviate from the given tradition. This is considered not just a violation, but also disrespect for a particular educational institution.
Below are the most interesting, in our opinion, schools in England.
The King's School in Macclesfield
The Ryleys Preparatory School
Cheadle Hulme School
Eton College
