Abstract

School uniform is regarded as children’s daily wear, which is restricted to wear for more than 5 times per week. However, available information shows that some parents and children are not satisfied with the existing school uniforms. Therefore, it is meaningful and valuable to investigate this area. From the existing information, it shows that people are dissatisfied with the existing school uniforms. It is because they are not suitable for children's physical and psychological development. Therefore, improvements in school uniforms are needed. Information on new design of school uniform was obtained through literature review, observation, interview and questionnaire surveys. Finally, new school uniforms were designed based on child development.
