Well ,to me it looks like a tunic and trousers or a dress,difficult to say.

Kinda looks like a scrub dress.....?

Well I know I wouldnt wear it, a belt has not seen my waist since 3 kids ago!!!

It looks like the kind of uniform we wear in the UK. We tend to just call it a uniform either dress or tunic.

Is there a particular reason that you are asking?

Well I know I wouldnt wear it, a belt has not seen my waist since 3 kids ago!!!

:chuckle

Yeah, I was thinking it was kinda cute.....if you had a 24 inch waist.

I think she looks like a housekeeper at the Hilton!

It's a very cute nursing dress, but I don't know how pratical it would be to wear in a hospital or health care setting. With all the bodily fluids, MRSA, etc that we're exposed to in the nursing field, I'd want to wear pants to protect myself. Maybe cute for a doctors office?? good luck

alright cool, thanks all. well im lookin to buy one, which also brings up another issue... does anyone kno off the top of their head where the best place to purchase uniforms such as this would be?

Moved to nursing scrubs and uniform

If you are looking for this type of uniform then I would suggest and internet search. There are companies in the UK that sell them but I am not sure of US companies that supply them.

Try a search for work wear or uniform supplies.

yeah i guess pants are more comfy to wear during hospital duties, this could be nice in a private clinics

Belt is because the uniforms are not very fitted at the waist to cover multiple sizes in a range, so one wears the belt to adjust the fit. Don't think have ever seen a USA nurse wearing one, though have seen them in adverts.
