Uniform and women's clothing: the museum uniform

The traditional museum uniform, which is close to a military uniform, has evolved towards modernity and has adapted to the female presence in the museum staff. The design office ofUniforme prestige has created women's museum uniforms whose characteristics are in line with current tastes and whose design allows for more femininity. Women's museum uniforms must also be comfortable and facilitate the mobility of this ever-changing activity in the large halls and often endless corridors of large museums.

Our women's outfits are adapted to the function of those who wear them

The function of a museum guard is to welcome visitors, to supervise and secure exhibitions. As such, the museum guard must be recognisable and easily distinguishable by the specificity of her museum attire in a crowd of visitors. The choice of bright colours and attributes such as coloured edgings, highly visible identity badges and headdresses make it possible to signal oneself to visitors looking for information and to exert a dissuasive effect on the security of the exhibitions through one's highly visible presence. However, the visibility and comfort of women's museum clothing can be combined with elegance and aesthetic pleasure.

The designers ofUniforme prestige propose museum women's outfits similar to those of hostesses, i.e. jacket-trouser or skirt ensembles emphasised by identity colours on the pockets and borders of the outfits, accompanied by feminine headdresses, caps or hats marked with the museum's logos. For the warmer seasons, women's museum outfits are made up of light, short-sleeved dresses underlined by a belt at the waist, always characterised by coloured edging and headdresses emphasising the general stature of the museum guard. Uniforme prestige favours easy-care, sweat-proof cotton textiles, which have the advantage of being produced through fair trade to support producers and socially underprivileged populations.
