Yes, they do seem to have gone for a more 'feminine' look rather than a pratical one, which is what we would expect today.

Eventually, I hope to have several variants: some with a belt, some with the pockets on the inside of the jacket (thus only showing the welting where the pocket is). I figure that there were enough variations during the war that one of what I do will suit the users' needs. I am planning this first set to be khaki oriented: a dark jacket and skirt with light khaki blouse, and an all light khaki set to represent the 'summer/tropical' oufit. Later, I will do a set of blue (Navy) and dark green (WMC), plus maybe a set of caps to go with them.
