Modern medical apparel vs older style outfits

I have to say both have an interesting place, and my preference would depend on who is examining me.

Older nurses uniforms are interesting, especially if clean, white, and starchy. They project strictness, and I would love to to be examined by a dominating nurse wearing this outfit.

On the other hand, scrubs are so nice and comfy, and, I'd have to say, a tad bit cuter. So a nice nurse wearing scrubs would definitely be a turn on as well, and would fit well with a soft, gentle personality 😃.

Scrubs aren't very feminine. I think a nurse's uniform is more flattering and hence sexier.

When I went to nursing school in the late 60's, all the girls wore the traditional white dress, white stockings and white shoes. Being the only male, I was allowed to wear surgical scrubs with a white lab coat. The only pertinent thing I remember is the girls complained you could see their underwear through the dress. I didn't mind.

What are the thoughts on the compromise between traditional white dress and the scrubs - a nice white scrub dress?

I prefere the old style

Old style is much better . The medical field has gone to casual Friday everyday .I think that they would got more respect if they went back to some of the old ways.

I much prefer old style, the doctor wearing a white shirt and tie with labcoat and stethoscope around neck. Nurses in white uniforms. Nowadays you can't tell who's a nurse and who's a doctor. 😢

I prefer the old style, white and starchy.

However I don't like those fake nurses uniforms.

I know i'm in the minority here but I think that there is nothing cuter than a nurse in pink scrubs. I just like scrubs better in general for some reason.

I prefer the modern style of clothing as it seems more detached and imposing. I also like the use of disposal clothing and items like latex gloves and masks, as they make you feel more separated from your nurse.

I Love the Modern Scrubs as there are so many different styles and colors and love all the multi-colored gloves, caps and masks that you can get to go with the outfit.

I think it is more about the way the nurse acts and talks, than the type of uniform she is wearing. Either the scrubs or the traditional dress on a authoritative, take charge nurse is a turn on. I miss the rubber sheets every hospital bed used to have. Now they normally use a disposable pad, or a soaker which is plastic backed.

Old school. Metal instruments, stiff white coats, and air of authority, I'm happy.

I would have to say i like the today's scrubs better. i just like how they look and all.

Does anyone know where an old style nurse's uniform could be obtained? On ebay and other internet sites I can find only modern scrubs for sale. Any clues or leads will be appreciated.

In play, I prefer the older,nurse in white dress,stockings and shoes with hat. male Dr. in dress slacks,shirt and tie with lab coat, female Dr. in dress or skirt and blouse and lab coat.

A very good topic! I personally prefer the modern apparel, including scrubs, sometimes a lab coat, with latex exam gloves and a stethoscope.

I have a "that was then, this is now attitude." I recall physicians wearing three piece suits or a lab coat over a shirt and tie. Today I prefer professionals that do not look like undergraduates at a wine and cheese party. Probably don't expect to see a nurse in a little black dress and heels. Prefer to see him/her in scrubs that do not resemble pajamas with rubber ducky prints. My physicians' appearance needs to reflect the high standard of professional excellence he/she has attained and acquired from Brooks Brothers.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,

I have never seen a shapely nurse in a old fashioned uniform

but it seems like it would be very erotic!

although some look quite lovely in scrubs!!

I really have no preference either way. Although, I have to admit, I love the way a man looks in a shirt and tie!

I like the doctor in the shirt and tie with the white lab coat and steth around his neck. Makes him look more like a man.

I much prefer the attire worn by today's lady medical professionals, physician and non-physician alike. The outfits worn by a woman that I find attractive absolutely gets my mind going.

As for unattractive? well, new or old outfits...unattractive is unattractive, and, I would imagine that is true for women also, when viewing men in the medical profession.

G.N.

I love the look of the old fashioned nurse's uniforms. I have been able to find some wonderful sexy vintage outfits on eBay that help to complete my look. I wear a tight corset, lace panties and stockings underneath. On top of my nurse's uniform is my stethoscope.

I have been having trouble finding vintage nurse's style footwear, however. Does anyone have any ideas?

Being born in 1940, I prefer tho older more professional look. Doctors in white starched shirt, tie and white lab coat. Nurses in Starched white dress, white shoes, and nursing cap. Both totally professional.

Preference towards surgical gowns, dark green/light green or blue, with medical bouffant-hair covers..look like a shower cap, face mask and latex gloves, white rubber 'clogs'/shoes or elasticated disposable socks/shoe covers. Particular favourite being waterproof nylon gowns either obstetrics gown or veterinary overalls..lovely rustling sound as the nurse/surgeon moves about during medical play. When I underwent an operation in the early 90s(UK)the theatre staff wore dark green gowns,masks,gloves and bouffant hair covers. I had to wear a light blue nylon gown.

I like seeing my doctor in modern scrubs..although on occasion he has been in casual clothes, jeans, etc. when he is wearing them though he always has on a lab coat

The old white gown/cap look scares me a little yet erotic at the same time. For some reason they look almost evil or something but nowadays they look more professional. To be honest, both are quite a turn on but I think I'd prefer the modern one just cause they look cleaner. The white gowns remind me of butchers haha.

I like both. I like the starched white nurses uniform of the old days. I also like modern scrubs with a surgical mask in place.

Early in this thread I came down on the side of the traditional starched white uniform.

I'd have to add that there is something very attractive about the blue dress worn by the British nurses.

Are they still worn by British nurses or have they also switched to the modern scrub?

I am not sure if modern British nurses still wear the blue dresses. I have found them for sale on eBay for reasonable prices and have added them to my nursing collection.
