    I had uniform shirt, tie, slacks, socks, jumpers, blazer, bag

    The shoes weren’t uniform but were of very limited style.

    You could pick something about wealth by how neatly kids were dressed (and the state of their clothes; the cheapest were nearly worn out), and the toys they brought to school

    Hats weren’t regulated because it was the '80s and '90s and we didn’t wear hats. We had a uniform hat in our sports uniform but it wasn’t popular
