A nurse outfit is a dress or apron costume with a red cross, usually completed with a small cap. Just like any uniform in professions and hobbies, you recognize the nurse by one sign, the red cross, and around that you choose the style: the classic white nurse, the old-fashioned nurse in blue with a white apron, or a playful look with hearts, sequins, or black with red piping. There is a nurse outfit for women in sizes XS to XL, for men a drag dress and a unisex white coat, and for your child a nurse outfit from body length 80 cm. If you are looking for a zombie nurse, take a look at all nurse clothing.
Full dress or separate apron: which nurse outfit suits you?
- White is the classic color, with a red cross on the chest, pocket, or collar, or with red piping along the neck and sleeves, and usually a white cap with a cross is included.
- More playful in white are the models with white hearts on the apron, an apron with a border of red sequins, or a three-piece set with a cap on a red headband and a red stethoscope.
- Black nurse dresses have red piping or a red cross on the chest, and with one model you get a black head covering and a red stethoscope.
- Blue belongs to the old-fashioned nurse: a cobalt blue women's dress down to the calves with a white front panel and a cap with a long veil, and for girls a bright blue dress with a white apron.
- For children there are also separate white aprons with a skirt and cap, which you simply button over your own clothes.
Size, length and what is in the set
For a nurse outfit for women, the size range goes from XS to XL, but not every model covers that entire range: some only start at S and others stop at M or L, so check the size per dress. Children's sizes go from body length 80 cm to 158 cm, and with that you choose by length and not by age. Most dresses fall short to around the knee, while the blue old-fashioned women's dress reaches down to the calves. One women's model with elastane has a close-fitting fit that moves with your body. Also pay attention to how complete your nurse outfit comes: often you get the dress and cap together, but some sets consist of a dress and apron without a head covering.
Cap with cross and a doctor by your side
If your dress does not include a head covering, a separate nurse cap completes the nurse look, because that cap with a cross is visible from a distance. If you are going as a duo, then a doctor costume with a white coat looks good next to the nurse outfit, so that you together bring the hospital to the party. White gloves and white stockings carry the color of a white nurse costume from top to bottom.
A nurse outfit during carnival or at a theme party
A nurse outfit for carnival works especially well in a group: the red cross makes everyone immediately recognizable, even if you each choose a different color or style. Children simply button a separate apron over their own clothes, so the nurse outfit is quick to put on and take off. At a theme party about professions, the nurse fits just as well, especially next to a colleague in a white coat.
