of Additional Uniforms. A WASP will have the privilege of purchasing
uniforms and other items of clothing in addition to those which are issued.
A WASP may also purchase regulation material for the purpose of having
a uniform made by her own tailor. Clothes made by the women for themselves,
made by tailors for them, or received by them from other than official
sources will be made from material procured from official sources and will
conform in pattern and color to the WASP uniform issued through official
sources. The uniform may be fitted by tailors designated for that purpose

snugly as to cause a wrinkle. The skirt will be fitted in such a way as
to always be free of wrinkles and be long enough to completely cover the
knee. The jacket will be buttoned at all times when worn. Under no circumstances
will the collar of the shirt be worn outside the jacket, and the shirt
will always be tucked inside the skirt or slacks.
