Specification
Gender
Female
Ensemble
Regimental Mess jacket with the rank badge for the substantive rank or appointment.
Lower garment and footwear
Long unstriped Mess skirt and black court shoes.
Scope
Warrant officers and senior NCOs. Junior NCO Mess associations are not selected in this catalogue.
Legwear options
Choose the existing skirt, dress or female-cut trouser outfit, or Royal Gibraltar Regiment Dress Trousers. These are alternative outfits, not additional garments to wear together. Retain any rank, appointment, occasion and pattern conditions; select footwear and fittings to match the chosen legwear.
Fittings & Lead Times
Measurements are taken and fittings overseen by Geoffrey Golding at the St Albans workroom, with each garment checked throughout the making process for fit, balance, finish and correct detail. Lead time is typically 8-12 weeks, depending on workshop capacity, fitting requirements and the date required.
