Product Details
What's Included
- Khaki green dungarees with cross-back suspender straps, brown contrast waistband with belt loops and rolled brown cuffs ending below the knee
- White short-sleeved collared top with V-neck front opening and hemmed cuffs
- Red bandana-style headscarf with white paisley pattern and self-tie construction
This Adult Womens 1940s Land Girl Costume recreates the iconic uniform of Britain's Women's Land Army — the 250,000 women who worked the fields during World War II when men were called to serve.
The khaki dungarees feature authentic vintage styling with rolled cuffs ending below the knee, brown contrast trim at the waist and leg hems, and cross-back suspender straps for period-accurate silhouette. The white collared top pairs with a red polka-dot bandana headscarf to complete the working-woman aesthetic that became a symbol of wartime resilience.
Key Features
- dungarees with cross-back straps and functional belt loops for authentic 1940s cut
- Brown contrast fabric at waistband and rolled leg cuffs adds vintage working-uniform detail
- White short-sleeved collared shirt with V-neck opening and standard hemmed cuffs
- Self-tie red bandana headscarf in paisley print — practical period headwear to protect hair
- Cropped dungaree length ending below knee for historically accurate wartime working silhouette
Perfect For
VE Day & VJ Day Commemorations: Wear this to Victory in Europe or Victory over Japan anniversary events, wartime weekend festivals, or 1940s historical reenactment days where authentic Land Army uniforms bring the home front to life.
Vintage 1940s Themed Parties: Perfect for swing dance nights, Keep Calm and Carry On parties, Blitz-themed events, or any 1940s retro gathering where women's wartime contribution takes centre stage.
Educational & Book Week Events: Ideal for history teachers presenting on World War II home front, Book Week projects on wartime non-fiction, or museum volunteer programmes focusing on women's wartime roles and agricultural history.
How to Wear It
Pair with brown lace-up ankle boots or practical black flats for authentic working footwear — avoid modern heels. Tie the headscarf at the front in classic Rosie the Riveter style, or at the nape for traditional Land Girl look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this fit standard adult women's sizes?
Yes — the dungarees have adjustable cross-back straps for flexible fit, and the white top is sized for adult women. Check the size chart for chest and waist measurements to ensure the best fit for the dungaree waistband.
Is the belt included with the dungarees?
The dungarees have functional belt loops, but the belt is not listed as an included component. Add your own brown belt for the complete waistband detail, or wear the dungarees without — the suspender straps hold them securely.
Is this historically accurate for VE Day events?
Yes — the costume closely follows authentic Women's Land Army uniform elements: khaki or green dungarees, practical collared shirt, and headscarf for field work. It's ideal for wartime commemorations, historical reenactments, or 1940s heritage events.
How do I style the headscarf?
Fold the square bandana into a triangle, place the long edge at your hairline, and tie the two ends at the front (Rosie the Riveter style) or at the nape of your neck (traditional Land Girl style). Tuck loose hair underneath for period authenticity.
Can I machine wash this costume?
Hand wash cold separately to preserve the fabric and contrast trim. Hang to dry flat. Avoid bleach on the white top; iron on low heat if needed for the collared shirt.
Care:Hand wash cold, hang dry flat, low iron for collar.

Ww2 land army mixed review 0 people found this helpfulUnfortunately the white T-shirt top is stained with red. The head scarf has obviously leeched into the fabric. I was planning to wear a different shirt anyway but not great if someone needed the whole thing. The rest of costume is fine, suits my needs and was a quick turnaround. Good price for a once wear outfit
