- Abstract
Uniforms directly or indirectly accompany all aspects of our lives, in various institutions and organisations with uniformed staff . The article discusses the viewpoints that create the today's understanding of uniforms, their acceptance in the society and their correlation with the environment. Nowadays, different uniforms are used by armed forces, paramilitary organisations, work organisations, emergency services, associations, restaurants and hotels. Apart from the general function of clothing, as a protection from weather and environment, uniforms have a very important function of representing a group of people, showing their position and associations in the society. A good visual image of the garment is of the essence, next to the full public relations strategy, in building the corporate identity. The quality of materials and the manufacture of garments, and adapting designs to the workplace are important to ensure the employees feel comfortable in their uniforms. The uniforms are full clothing systems, consisting of clothes and footwear. They are adapted to the requirements of particular jobs and are also divided into categories such as work and formal, as well as for numerous other occasions.
