What Do Doctors and Nurses Wear Cicero had said, “In nothing do men more nearly approach the gods than in giving health to men.� So those medical stuff leave us a lofty, respectful and lovely image. While

what

do

they

wear

in

our

impression? I assume that it must be the ministering angel with all-white uniforms. However, is the white coat their only choice? The answer is definitely no. Actually the history of medical clothing has experienced a long evolution.


Prior to about 1900, doctors traditionally wore the black robe, and nurses dressed on the apron, which was often referred to as a “butcher’s apron.” From 1900s on, the white coat turns more and more popular in medical

settings,

which

denoted

professionalism and an understanding that cleanliness is the key to prevent sepsis. While the glare of lights off the white fabric tended to cause eye fatigue. So later a more neutral green became the color of choice. Today it’s still a popular hue. Then in the middle of 20th century, the modern scrubs were introduced to public, drawstring pants and loose-fitting short-sleeve top. And the number of available scrubs color has

burgeoned

to allow hospitals

to


designate many different specialties within the healthcare profession. So we come to realise that scrubs has been considered as medical uniforms now, and they could be various colors and fabrics. And in this field, Jaanuu and FIGS share good reputation. Both provide many kinds of medical clothing, special, beautiful but also suitable and comfortable. And they all spare

efforts

to

create

fashionably

innovative designs that never sacrifice style for comfort and fit. Just like what they say in their introduction: what you wear affects how you feel and ultimately how you perform. So if the


clothes we put on make us feel good and perform at our best no matter what our day throw at us, then it must be the best choice. Of course, everyone prefers savings for their purchases, and both of these two brands have their sale and special offers in couponbirds. So we can use the minimal efforts to save the maximum money. After learning about the evolution of medical clothing, we know that white coats are no their only choice. Instead, they could also wear some special, fashionable and comfortable scrubs. I think if the scrubs meet the medical standards, they could wear anything. There is no unchanging


fashion, and our ideas should also update, advancing with the times.
