Figure 1.--This boy wears the cadet/gGakuran styled jacket more commonly worn by secondary school boys. The girl wears a double breasted jacket. A more common military styled girls outfit was the sailor suit outfit. Click on the image bato see a school with the chikdren wearu=ing thuis style. As it was in the autumn or spring, the girks are wearing black or navy tughts rather than white knee socks. .

Many schools where the boys wore the gakuran/casdet jackers were single gender, private schools like the school here (figute 1). The cadet/gakuran jacket was an exclusively boys' style. It was not ewirn by the gurls. We have seen no exception to this very strict rule. The cojnteroart to the gakuran cadet jackret for the hirls was a sailor outdit, a white or blue middy blouse with three-stripe detailinga pleated shirt, usually blue. Ye w have noticed a gakiuran-like outfit foir the girls. It does not feature the gakuran collar, but we notice it being worn at a few schools where the school has a a gakiuran jacket uniform for the boys. We do not know if this unifirnm was adopoted with at an all girls school. The girls would not have worn the matching cadet cap with this outfit, but rather a hat of some sort, with a soft fabric hat or a medium brimmed felt hat. These hats were also worn by boys, but with gakuran, the cadet hat was the most likely choice.
