agree  Helena Chavarria: I've only ever heard a uniform called "a uniform", never a uniform set.

  -> Yes precisely, me neither. You wouldn't talk about a uniform set in English. Thanks :)

agree  Charles Davis: I agree too. I wonder about "one full uniform", implying all the bits and pieces but just one of each, to reflect "módulo". Just a thought.

  -> Thanks Charles, yes that's a good idea too.

agree  José Julián: O como propone Charles Davis, "one full uniform"
