Back to school, university and academia: where to buy a uniform that can be worn in everyday life

August is the time to prepare for the new school year. And we are talking not only about stationery, but also about clothes. Well, who did not have to desperately search for blue, black and burgundy things in all the stores! Of course, there were also lucky ones who were bypassed by the notorious uniform, but it is clear that such people are less frequent.

Today we invite you to reconsider your attitude to the educational dress code and make a note of brands from this material, even if you graduated a long time ago. Believe me, a black suit, a pleated miniskirt and a knit vest will suit daily life very well. Well, let’s not forget that the high school girl aesthetic is pretty much the latest trend adored by Bella Hadid, the Khadra sisters, and hundreds of fashion influences and street style heroes.

We’ve brought together seven Russian brands where you can find everything you need in their collections: from classic blazers and skirts to sweaters and shirts.

Lesanebo

Are you looking for the perfect suit? Then we offer you to get acquainted with the Russian brand Lesyanebo. The collection includes both single-breasted and double-breasted jackets, as well as three-piece suits in various shades. For the training outfit, we recommend choosing models in black, gray and dark olive tones. You can combine the suit with a beige turtleneck, an oversized shirt or even a T-shirt (if the class teacher is not too strict). By the way, this brand is loved not only in Russia, but also abroad. Among the fans of the brand is Gigi Hadid. In the wardrobe of the star you can find at least three sets of pants from the brand.

We love the clo target of the Novosibirsk brand for knitted products – the collection includes vests, turtlenecks, cozy sweaters and cardigans of various shades. You can wear it with straight cut trousers, mini skirts and shorts. The last option will not work in the winter, but in the fall you can create a very cool look with solid loafers and white socks. Of course, purpose clo doesn’t just have knitted things. We advise you to take note of the gray cropped jacket and familiarize yourself with the variety of shirts.

lime

The new LIMÉ collection is built on a rethinking of the preppy style and is imbued with the spirit of rebellious youth. There are pleated miniskirts, collared dresses, oversized shirts with blue and white stripes, and leather jackets. Everything is universal, so you can easily fantasize about style. Wear a skirt with a short white shirt and complete the look with Mary-Jane shoes and golf shoes.

DOOR31

Petersburg brand GATE31 is minimalism in its purest form. Looking for a versatile white blouse? Yes please! Are you dreaming of classic trousers? Here are some options for you. Personally, we recommend paying attention to a short shirt with a belt that can be tied at the waist. Such a wardrobe is ideal for the first day of school – it looks minimalist, but at the same time does not look boring. The image can be supplemented with a maxi skirt with a square cape and an open back (shoes with heel straps).

BNPRT

There are never too many suits, we thought and decided to tell about another Russian brand. Of course, the BNPRT collection includes not only suits of perfect cut and color, but also shirts, vests and knitwear. But we suggest paying special attention to the timeless classics of training and office uniforms – a jacket + trousers. In BNPRT this is always the right oversize, which will make the image more daring and modern.

LaTrika

Petersburg brand LaTrika certainly knows a lot about proper femininity. If the preppy style with a share of rebellion is not close to you, feel free to go to the website or store of the above-mentioned Russian brand. We appreciate LaTrika for the Basic line, but also for the Black and White section, which is worth checking out for anyone looking for a classic uniform.

totti

The last (but not least) brand in our selection is Totti. In the collection of a local brand, you can easily collect several complete outfits for school, university or even office. Choose a pair of trousers and wear a white long-sleeve combo instead of a shirt, or opt for a pencil skirt and pair it with a t-shirt, bomber jacket, high knee socks and boots on a massive platform (this look, we spied on Bella Hadid).
