I have always liked uniforms because they make dressing for work easy, but I can understand the dynamics that you're facing too. If there is a preception that management doesn't take the people wearing uniforms as seriously as those who don't, I would probably not start wearing a uniform. Dynamics at work are hard enough with someone not takig you as seriously as they once did. I guess you really need to sit and decide how much the change will effect your everyday work and relationship with those at the office.
