Bar ebay that doesn't seem to yeild a great deal though I'm keeping an eye on a couple of items. Is there anywhere else that could be recommended for looking, specifically for womens uniforms. At the moment I'm open to suggestions on which one as there seem to be so few of them available (or I'm not looking in the right places). It seems much easier dressing up as a bloke, but it would be, I think nice to extend my kit past that and have something more fitting.
Thanks in advance

er.............
for which country? Brit, US, German?
When we were a Kingdom it was run by a King
When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........
Ideally British or German, I can imagine the latter would be helish to get a kit for and I'd probs have to research further and find a willing seamstress. I know loads of sites to get male kit from, just as I said would be nice not to dress as a male once in a while for functions. (sorry that sounds so wrong I'm female and it would be nice to dress appropriately on occasions)
Thanks

The PST forum has a whole section devoted to female re-enactors from the German perspective:

Hope you can find some info on there that's helpful.

Hi Helga,

If there is anything you want from the extra kit we have let me know.
Ah there are discussions afoot Mr Fandaglos

Think spare kit (clotheswise) at least in the stores
may be a smidge on the large size for me
other stuff may definately be MINE MINE ALL MINE
and I'm considering M44 jacket just don't tell HWMBO (thats he who must be obeyed)
edited to add cos I know someone won't be able to resit, I know the M44 wasn't introduced properly til Sept 1944
