I remember i was in 2nd year at school and we went to the young scientist exhibition in the RDS. There was some school from cork with a green top and the shortest skirt ever.
We were all like :eek:
Seen nothing like it in dublin.

My year had to have a talk because our skirts are "like tutus" apparently. So, er, yeah...

And I don't think I've ever actually seen anyone from St. Vincents wearing the skirt since they took pity on them and introduced pants...

My uniform was horrible. A big green jumper, long plain green skirt for junior half, long heavy checked green and navy skirt for senior half, green knee-high socks, cream shirt and black shoes. The old vice principal would go around making sure you han't got your skirt rolled up. There was no option of pants despite our begging.

Went to school in Limerick, so I had a foot (not ankle, foot) length thick pleated wool skirt, v-neck, and decks (now called "dubes" apparently). Hilarious trying to make them flattering by wearing "banned" fitted white penneys blouses as opposed to school shirts. In the summer you'd get Americans and Chinese tourist asking to pose with you on Cruises St, and in winter the school was too tight to get the radiators working so we-along with every other girls school in Limerick-had "day pyjamas" as well as "night pyamas" that we wore tucked into our socks under our skirts for warmth. Apparently some teachers have since started doing pyjama checks, though I'd love to hear them justify asking a teenage girl to lift her skirt if challenged! TBH though, if I'd been a bigger girl (I'm fairly tiny) I'd have been happier in that type of thing than the mini-skirts in Cork and the like. Always used to feel sorry for the big girl squeezed into her blue tube skirt when we were on school trips! Though, Cork girls used to bless themselves when they passed us.

We didn't have a uniform :cool:

Azureus · 25-04-2011 3:48pm

My first school was horrendous...bright blue jumper, light blue shirt, bright blue and very long skirt and bright blue socks. We all looked like ridiculous smurfs.

My second school from 4th-6th year uniform was nice though-short green/blue check skirt, knee socks and white shirt. Navy jumper that no-one ever wore except with one teacher who was a bit of a perv and used to tell us that it was very hot outside and we should all take our jumpers off...it was usually raining.

Dwellingdweller · 25-04-2011 3:57pm

Blandest uniform in the country-dark navy/black trousers and jumper, grey shirt, you'd swear it was a spec ops get-up or somethin! Having said that we met another school at some careers day that had a cartoony turquoise jumper, made me glad to be wearin such a conservative colour lol

Calasanctius is the name of the school in Oranmore? What a horrible, horrible name.

cocoshovel · 25-04-2011 4:46pm

All Irish ones.

landsleaving · 25-04-2011 5:05pm

I thought mine was ok, grey jumper and trousers, nothing too offensive. Then they introduced the new 'casual' 6th year uniform.

Black trousers. Light brown shirt. Black sweatshirt, roundneck style. It was the most horrific crime against fashion I've ever encountered. Slag me all you like for saying this, but brown and black clash so we all looked like idiots. Some liked that they got to wear a sweatshirt. I reverted to a black V-neck jumper and a white shirt, and told any teacher who questioned it I wasn't buying a new top and shirt for a few months of school, they didn't really care at that point anyway.

Yeah, I remember seeing more than one girls school in Cork that had ridiculously long skirts. Literally went right down to their feet. Girls in our school called them "the Floating Virgins". :pac:

Our uniform consisted of a winey/maroon coloured jumper, winey/maroon and white striped tie, grey shirt and grey pants (girls had choice between pants or skirt) Could have been worse, I suppose. Uniforms are ghey, though.

Jigglypuff · 25-04-2011 5:54pm

Mine was brown and green. Like a tree.

Rubberlegs · 25-04-2011 6:10pm

My primary school uniform was utterly horrendous. Royal blue jumper and A line skirt. Canary yellow shirt. And to top it off, as if it wasn't bad enough, a f**king black velvet ribbon, tied in a bow, instead of a tie:(

At school the uniform consisted of chinos, waistcoat,striped blazer and a straw boater which one would tip to a Master if passing him in the Quadrangle. I can't remember if monocles were obligatory or not but everyone wore one.

You wore a blazer with a waistcoat?

RhubarbCrumble · 25-04-2011 10:05pm

Mine was a royal blue jumper and calf length royal blue skirt with grey socks or tights. Absolutely hideous :eek: Can't wear blue to this day.

That's the part of the outfit you're questioning?

Slut on the slope or whore on the hill?

Dudess · 25-04-2011 11:02pm

I don't know - the school just down the street from where you went to art college is where I went. I know it's definitely not whore on the hill anyway...

Ah, that gaff. Not the best uniform really.

Dudess · 25-04-2011 11:15pm

Yeah, very dull looking... Horrible drab green and then a grey blouse. At least no pinafore or long/pleated skirt malarky though...

I went to something like that in UL when I was in second year (P.E. awards or something) and it was the same thing. Our skirts stood out a mile. Bizarre that it's pretty much confined to Cork - what could it signify...? :pac:
I couldn't believe how long the other schools' skirts were.

Oh yeah forgot that - the skirt was quite shortlived. It was monstrous!

Oh yeah, that's probably my school. Ahem...

Could be a few places - St Al's, Angela's, Aidan's, Ashton. Basically, anywhere that begins with an "A". One of those is my alma mater too. :pac:

AskMyChocolate · 25-04-2011 11:37pm

Grey trousers,grey jumper,grey shirt and my school still churns out accountants like a conveyor belt.

HxGH · 25-04-2011 11:43pm

Mine is made up of black, red and white. Not too bad. Better than my purple primary school uni.

School uniforms that would want to make you vomit !
