Some bizarre headless woman in a picture :oops: anyways you probs can't see very well, the belt with the jacket is a work in progress its there for effect and will most likely be changed very soon be it dyed again as I think thers way too much contrast going on (poss leave it to sun bleach for a week or two on the line when this winds gone (not mine the weather :roll: ), or a whole new sheep will be inflicted :lol: ) Anyways point is to show the trews, and rather than start a new one I've added it on this post as it covers helferin uniforms. They're converted from swedish pw ones and are also still a work in progress as they need tweaking some, but been saying I will put a pic up for ages so here it is. They now have the female fly on the hip (pic of that), waist adjusters complete removal of male fly and its accutraments.

Such a flattering ensemble :oops:

I have an original Flak Helferien uniform, which is a tunic and trousers. There`s an M43 cap and side cap made out of a roll of original luftwaffe material and also a skirt made form draings/photos has well.

Hi,
One slight problem is that this is a uniform that is not in any book I`ve seen so far. It`s an original uniform. Of course the skirt is quite heavy due to it being lined, the fabric of which i still have some left actually made the skirt and lots of M43 caps.

The other problem is me actually managing to post said pics.

Helppppppppppppppppppppp

Keith

Pics would be really appreciated then, I've seen lots of variations and would love an ogle at the uniform :D and of course if I can be of any help I shall do my best. There are a number of variations in kit issue, much like male kit, and just because you've not seen it, doesn't mean someone on here hasn't seen the likes of it before ;)

Anyways if you want and are agreeable and can't manage a posting of pics yourself, I can host it for you ;)

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease lemme see, purdy purdy purdy please :lol: 8) can you tell I really really want to see the items of uniform no ? :lol:
