This authentic reproduction of the WW1 Women’s Motor Corps uniform set represents the attire worn by female drivers and mechanics who served in various auxiliary and volunteer motor units during the First World War (circa 1916–1919). The ensemble includes the khaki wool tunic, matching long skirt, shirt and tie, Sam Browne leather belt with shoulder strap, and service cap. The tunic follows the military-cut style with pleated breast and hip pockets, brass buttons, and rank chevrons on the sleeve. The Sam Browne belt — standard for officers and corps drivers — adds authority and function, used to carry sidearms or pouches. The matching khaki cap with blue service band identifies the wearer’s Motor Corps branch, while brown leather puttees and ankle boots complete the field appearance.
