Love the clean "Mod" sixties lines of the dress and the matchhing angular faux Sassoon hair that only black-haired women can really pull off

Read about you in the NYT this morning. You have inspired me to take a new look at my clothes. You are adorable. Keep up the good work.

I just discovered this because of the NY Times piece. This is great. I would love love love if this catches on and we can just have uniforms, for simplicity sake and so I no longer need a closet full of clothes because convention dictates that we must wear a new outfit every day.

Meh. I think you had it right on the money but those tights look like they're from some old lady motel room. Sorry...If you 86'd the tights, I'd have given it a Cute!

I love this project. Just read about you today in NYT. I didn't see a mention in there about one of the great "uniform wearers" of all times-Ray Eames, the great designer. She wore the same black dress every day too.

You are amazing! A girl with lots of style but even better heart! Will pass this on to all my high school classes and get everyone to watch! Well done!

i really like this idea!! i am a young french fashion designer and i would love to donate something to wear with the dress.. how can i do that? i live in hoboken NJ, so i can maybe come someplace?? thanks a lot!! here is my email roman_clemenceanna@yahoo.fr

Please --where can we buy the dress -- a slightly longer version for work? Selling this dress would make a lot of money for your cause. And of course, a book and calendar could follow. I love the concept! Great haircut!

Ooohhhh, love Elle's idea. I, too, would be quite interested in purchasing a just-above-the-knee version of this dress. You've inspired us all -- we know how versatile this piece is and we'd love to find an excuse to add to our wardrobes and contribute to your fundraising efforts simultaneously!

ines tagged this Cute
great project! hope you tell us soon how you feel wearing the same dress...and what you do with the accessories after wearing them once ...how many such dresses do you have by now..and do you long for a pair of jeans sometimes?

Ah, this is beautiful. you know, i really would love to get my hands on one of these dresses and i'm sure i'm not the only one!

Haircut fits the uniform perfectly. (I may be biased - I have a similar pixie cut myself.) I've donated via the web site but I'm going to echo the thousands saying "sell the dress," or at least a pattern. But if I were you, I may not want legions of fans wearing MY uniform around...I'm eagerly awaiting the blog of how it was made, so people can get inspired to take their own "perfect" pieces and adapt them. We are not all shaped the same, after all!

The dress,shoes,and tights are all very pretty together but i dislike the necklace. Overall the outfit does not scream "SPICED UP"

Hee, Chonchords reference. The necklace is sweet sweet sweet. Just found out about the Project through NYT, hopped online and spent the past 20 or 30 minutes going through the photo archives so far. Smashing, and more than a little inspiring! Will be following with interest from this point on.

I like the jewelry with the dress, and the shoes. I like the tights by themselves, but I'm not enthused about them all together. I think a solid color, textured stocking would work well.

I'm not a huge fan of the leggings, but the outfit as a whole is lovely. :)

This outfit is fun! I really love the tights and the shoes. Well done!
Posted 1393 days ago.
Hello, I found your inniciative great but I when i saw the daily picture i was a bit disappointed because I saw that you were wearing other pieces of clothes to enhance its look and not only accessories as the proposed idea. Why is that? In some of the pictures it looks like the dress is the accessory even...:(

Very nice indeed. I am really enjoying my daily dose of the Uniform Project - thank you Sheena! I bought myself the perfect black dress yesterday, but alas can't afford 7 copies. Happy Sunday.
