I had a different experience with school uniforms. At my school they made their best effort to strip any individuality out of us. No jewellery, no "extreme" haircuts (basically anything that wasn't a clipper cut or short back and sides), no hair dye (even to another natural colour). Sure, it may have prevented an arms race around student fashion, but it went so far the other way instead and denied us any right to express ourselves. People still got bullied relentlessly, the existence of a uniform did nothing to stop that.
