Day 300. Wed, February 24 2010
300 down, 65 to go.
Today, the countdown to the big finale of my 1 year in 1 dress begins. So far we’ve seen pixies, elves, pirates, ravers, evil sprites, skipping-school girls and intergalactic mermaids all in the same black dress. Spread the U.P's message of making style sustainable and help us raise more funds for the kids of Akanksha. Share & Retweet today!
”Day 300 in 1 dress. @uniformproject's final countdown. 153 kids in school with your donations, help us reach 200!”

300 days already. I already donated but I am going to donate again, today, right now. Why dont we all. Even if it is just a bit, it all adds up.

I am always interested in reading posts; your outfits can be quite divisive amongst your followers. I applaud your inventiveness, doesn't matter to me if I think it's wearable for me!

zorro, congrats on 300 days! I am dutifully following along here in chilly Stockholm, and I've donated a lump sum to the donation bin if only to see you continue to wear those puffy pants from day 298. Alladin would be proud. Just kidding.

It was you on Lafayette this morning! I was walking to the subway, passed you walking with a friend and thought hmmm, it must be the girl behind the Uniform Project. I pop into your site once in awhile to be amazed by your creativity and style. It's always inspiring.

Just been so busy, but had to drop in to say that I love those socks! Very cute look! 300 days...wow...you've come a long, long way babe. And the beautiful part is, when the U.P ends, a whole new life begins for 153 kids (Maybe 200?)

wow 65 days!! T says all of the accessories (especially the head scarf) remind me of my papa's red bow tie and while he looks like a 80's nerd in it you look like quirky fun loving gal it made me smile!!

So why don't we all dig out our favorite staple, black dress today, creatively re-inventing it with accessoires we already have at home. Then, let's take a picture in a fabulous Sheena pose of ourselves and paste the UP logo and maybe a little credo for donating money into it. Let's post it to our social network sites and e-mail it to friends and family. Maybe they will find it easier to spare a few bucks for the kids when they see how inspired we are by this project! (I'm not graphically gifted and only have Paint!, so excuse the layout, but it could look something like this: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/XoydnNiDhxLOznWSFHmBLA?feat=directlink)

Congratulations on the 300 days! I can't wait to see the last 65 looks, but at the same time I'm sad that the end is coming... Sheena, you are truly amazing and inspired on your incredible project I'm starting one myself: 365 days without shopping any clothes. I'm starting next monday, March 1st, and I'm really excited about it. The only exception for my project would be the purchase of the Little Black Dress, the most beautiful and versatile I've ever seen, as you prove everyday! Can't wait to have one like this here in Brazil!!!

This is one of your best outifts - the belt and the shirt and the cuffs and the collar and the bowtie and of course that awesome headpiece. AWESOME.

...in the ocean of love on this page! Wow girl, look at all the overflowing hearts and exploding pride...it's strong enough to move mountains...and maybe we should! @pimientaconcerezas - love your idea! Maybe we should pick a future date - so that fans like me in Aus (who're already on Friday morning) don't miss out! Let's pick a date! Big love to the UPers this morning!

OMG!!! Definetly the best look i have ever seen from you! It took me directly to my childhood using these colors and a quite similar outfit which i had used in my 5 years old birthday at primary school. Such good memories... and a great look!
