Minimalism is always in. Even in high fashion, Issey Miyake, whose association with Steve Jobs is called out in the article, remains beloved beyond his death.

Perhaps it's not explicitly a uniform per se, but you could build a fashionable psuedo-uniform out of only a few garments relatively cheaply and without getting looks like you mentioned. That kind of fashion isn't for everyone, but neither is the color and fit maximalism that seem to dominate today's outfits.




I made a uniform of my own - same set of black tshirts, black jeans, one or two slightly different pairs of shoes.

It was great for a bit! I felt more well dressed, I was always comfortable, and it was incredibly functional.

Now I realize I like fun clothes too much to stick to the uniform always. But it's nice to have it around to fall back on.
