The Washington Post reviews a book about uniforms by Paul Fussell:

'[U]niforms, so vigorously despised in much current rhetoric about clothes, are really what most people prefer to wear.' ... Dressing approximately like others is to don armor against contempt. Better to be not noticed at all than noticed and targeted as odd.

It mentions Richard Nixon's failed attempt to make the White House police look like Swiss Guards: "Nixon, of course, had attempted to replace a uniform with a costume."
