- 1). Stitch together a white pinafore. Give it a square front with shoulder straps, belted waist and full skirt below the knees as shown in the illustration.
- 2). Buy or make a short-sleeved blue blouse with a white collar. Attach white paper bands around the ends of the sleeves for a touch of authenticity.
- 3). Make a white nurse's cap. Use stiff cardboard inside the frame of the hat to give the flared front that starched look. Wear your hair pulled back neatly.
- 4). Make a navy blue wool cape with a stiff collar. Buy the material or use an old blanket.
- 5). Buy a pair of white shoes with laces. Look for a pair of vintage stockings with the seams up the back of the legs. If they aren't available, use White-Out correction fluid to paint a white line up the back of pantyhose.
- 6). Find a black bag with a wide bottom that can serve as a doctor's bag. Fill it with accessories, such as a toy stethoscope, thermometer, pill bottle, notepad and pen.
