1967 Press Photo Norman Hartnell's design for policewomen

New Uniform For London Policewomen. The hall-mark of Mr. Norman Hartnell's design for the new uniform to be worn by the women of the Metropolitan police is its combination of elegance and comfort with utility. He has managed to accomplish this while maintaining the necessary aspect of legal authority in a less military ad more feminine style. The cloak to be worn in place of the great coat adds an imaginative touch and the new cap designed by Mme. Simone Mirman completes the fashionable picture of the modern, efficient woman of the Metropolitan Polices. Photo Shows: W.P.C Ethel Walker seen wearing the new style cap, with a black bow necktie worn htiherto.
