Vintage School Uniforms



I recently submitted a post over at Vintage Shopper.  It explores the British origins and history of school uniforms, how they came to be popular in the US, and how to wear and how not to wear a retro school uniform look today. 
  • Did you know the origin of school uniforms originated in the U.K.during the reign of King Henry VIII?
  • Did you know that Bill Clinton suggested that schools adopt uniforms in his 1996 state of the union speech?
  • Did you know that a 2013 study conducted by Lands' End and the National Association of Elementary School Principals found that 49% of U.S. public schools have a school uniform policy in place or plan to implement one.
I invite you to check out my post over at Vintage School Uniforms.
