Anecdote
I was in Colchester yesterday over lunchtime.
School is out, so the town centre was teeming with teenagers, mainly gaggles of girls. They were all wearing the same outfit: black short-sleeved top; bare midriff; short denim skirt or shorter denim shorts; short socks; white trainers. Very occasionally, one would have black shorts, but otherwise they were all co-ordinated.
It's weird how kids complain about school uniforms, then when they're not at school they all wear the same look.
I'd have taken some photos to show you, but it would have been awkward if I'd been spotted and worse if I said "I'm going to put them on the Internet" by way of excusing myself.
