[quote=Anonymous]I work in a law firm, technically no uniform, but there is, for women it is Ann Taylor and related look alikes. For men, a not too hip but expensive suit. I never went a uniform school, I struggle all the time with the conformity of this uniform, but what I hear all the time from other attorneys is that it is not that different from wearing this or that private school uniform. I get this is one workplace but I get a sense that is a common norm in most high paying professions outside silicon valley. I get that kaki's and a polo shirt are not going to make you want to conform to the class bias above but maybe it is worth thinking about. I know when I went to a discussion at Hardy and the questions of uniform was raised that the principal noted that kids had decided that they wanted the option of looking like the British school nearby and now have a school tie and wear it with a white shirt and jacket.
