I'm looking for a source, preferably in English, on the history and/or origin of the Catholic school girl uniform. Thanks in advance!

I thought this style of uniform was mostly American? At my (co-ed) Catholic school, we wore pretty much the standard UK school uniform (blazer, box-pleated skirt, jumper, shirt, and knee socks) and the single-sex Catholic schools were similar, but the kilts seem to be particularly an American thing.. So perhaps it's something that came from British school uniforms at some point? I'd be interested to see if this is the case!

the original article linked to in the "Behind the Pleats" link above is no longer online.
That article is not part of the archived issue online.
