Over the past 110 years, the Girl Scouts have had to walk a fine line in uniforming their members as the uniform had to be fashionable enough to appeal to scouts but not so avant garde as to worry their parents. Because of this the Girl Scout uniform provides an excellent case study in fashion trends with a new uniform nearly every decade and several uniforms designed by couture designers. This lecture will tell the story of the 20th century American women's fashion through looking at the evolution of the Girl Scout uniform.
