What's New

Hi! For our Clinic, we had designed a uniform pant & jacket. These are made of linen & are beige in color. The outfit looks very blah! We haven't designed any shirt yet. Could you please suggest something for the shirt? These will be worn by women only. The jacket is a high neck Chinese collared one. Thanks a lot!!

A top with a jewel neckline, mock turtleneck or turtleneck would be the best with that style jacket.

Since the jacket and pants are beige and you think it looks blah a colored top is needed to provide some excitement. Any bright color would add some interest (like a red or red & beige print top).

Have several tops for the women to choose from each day like a red and beige print top or a red top with a scarf made out of the same red & beige print as the blouse. This way whatever is worn will have a coordinated look. Scarves (like"infinity"/round) that can be slipped over the neck with the print or solid color blouse will add color. A light weight
print fabric will work best for the print top and scarf. (Flight attendant uniforms have pieces that they can mix but are color coordinated  to give a more individual & uniform look.)

Women can personalize their uniform with a brooch/pin on their jackets.

Another way to add some interest to the outfit would be to look for some interesting buttons for the beige jacket.
