Abstract

Abstract A scrub dress for use by women of varying physical dimensions. The scrub dress is straight-sided without utilizing a waist line so as to obtain greater comfort and better lines for women of varying shapes. A square neck opening is employed which will fit any size neck comfortably. Easy entry to the dress is made possible by a vertical slit that extends downwardly from one side of the neck opening. The slit is closed by releasable means of flat shape that permit easy laundering and ironing with a power mangle. The sleeves are so proportioned as to permit freedom of arm movement.
