Brownie Traditions Badge Uniform
The Brownie uniform has changed a
lot over the years.
|
|
Before
1917 Brownie uniform was not compulsory.
The first suggested uniforms were not brown, but blue.
Until 1917 most Brownies wore skirts and blouses in blue or brown.
The first compulsory uniform was a brown tunic dress.
|
|
|
The
first Brownie tie was worn with a blue uniform.
Before 1938 the tie for the brown uniform was brown.
In 1938 Brownie Packs could switch to wearing a gold tie.
In 1950 a brown beret was introduced.
|
In 1967 a
new style of dress and tie were introduced.
In 1973 a knitted pom-pom hat replaced the beret.
In 1990 a new style uniform was designed by Jeff Banks. It
featured much more yellow than before. Brownies were able to 'mix
and match' which clothes they wanted.
|
|
|
In 2002 new
uniform items were designed by Ally Capellino. Like the previous
uniform it is mix and match.
What do you think the uniform will look like in the future?
