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 common in both Japanese and Western pornography, making it one of the most widespread clothing-oriented fetishes worldwide. However, due to the taste of the audience, the schoolgirl will act differently.

The Catholic schoolgirl look

In Western pornography, the typical uniform is a Catholic school uniform, usually 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.

Due to influence by Britney Spears, a variant would include having the lower part of the blouse tied off to show off the midriff.

The Japanese schoolgirl look

In Japanese pornography, the female wears Japanese school uniform. Typically they would be based on the summer sailor fuku type (white blouse with blue sailor color and red tie, as well as a blue pleated skirt), except the skirt will be shortened significantly. However, numerous variants exist, which can be based on Catholic schoolgirls, uniform from numerous famous anime, or even to the point of "bustier plus mini skirt" for Bible Black. Generally, if it was an original design, it would be designed as to maximize display of the curve without exposing the skin.

In addition, numerous uniforms that was associated with Japanese schoolgirls are also used: examples include the form fitting navy blue one piece swimsuit (which in itself is very unappealing), the typical gym clothes for Japanese schoolgirls (tight white top and a navy blue tight, plus sneakers), and traditional Japanese martial art garb.

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.
