Workwear brand Dickies to make public school uniform codes which are more palatable for teens.
Parents like them and kids hate them -- school uniforms, that is. But with nearly one in five U.S. public school students now wearing mandatory attire, finally there's a choice that makes fashion sense too, just in time for the first bell.
Dickies, a powerhouse global workwear brand known for durable, functional clothing, now offers a complete line of school uniform tops, shirts, shorts, skort, pants, sweaters, hoodies and jackets for male and female students from Kindergarten through High School. See http://www.dickies.com .
Because the Dickies brand is hugely popular among teens, whose idols like Jay-Z, Blink 182, Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, Big Boi, Simple Plan and Adam Brody ("The O.C.") are often photographed wearing them, Dickies' affordable new school apparel line is expected to make uniform compliance more appealing and easier on kids, parents and schools.
New for back to school 2005, girls and junior's staples like white blouses, khaki pants and navy skirts are available in a stretch twill for better fit and comfort, plus have a style edge that won't make Teacher loose her cool.
For example, Dickies khaki twill skirt is dressed up with a wide waist band that looks sassy with this season's favorite tie-back interlock top. The line also includes a twill kilt skort, an inverted pleated skirt, walking shorts, a long carpenter skirt, basic walking shorts, polo tops and flat-front pants.
