A schoolgirl uniform fetish is a sexual fetish in which either a woman enjoys dressing in the typical uniform of a schoolgirl, or a man derives sexual pleasure from viewing women dressed in this manner. While this is classified as a sexual fetish, it does not require any actual sexual contact per se. The schoolgirl uniform fetish is stereotypically associated with Japan, although it has become one of the most widespread clothing-oriented fetishes worldwide.

The schoolgirl look

Typically, the uniform includes a very short, pleated skirt such as real schoolgirls wear for netball. The blouse worn is usually white, and may optionally include a tie and/or a straw boater (or other schoolgirl-style hat). For maximum authenticity, the uniform should include socks (usually white and often knee-length) and the sort of shoes a real schoolgirl would wear, such as Mary Jane (shoe)s. Alternatively, the woman may wear stockings with a skirt short enough to reveal the stocking tops; high-heeled shoes can add an explicitly sensual element to the traditionally innocent schoolgirl look. Preferred panties are usually voluminous white cotton knickers, but can be dark blue or dark green in color. Undergarments that are conventionally considered "sexy" (that is, very revealing and/or composed of silky fabrics) can be worn, but are largely shunned by purists.

Lolita pornography frequently utilizes images of women in schoolgirl uniforms. Note that this look is sometimes favoured by male transvestites as well.

Appeal

The schoolgirl image may appeal to women because it allows them to project a more youthful, innocent, or virginal image. These same reasons can explain part of the look's appeal to males as well. It may also have a less sexual aspect of nostalgia, recalling memories of a simpler time in one's life.
