14-9. Skirt, heritage taupe 565 (optional; female Soldiers only)

a. Design. The skirt will be made from an approved specification or pattern.

b. General description. The skirt is a dress type with a center front stylized seam that extends from the top edge

of the yoke through the hem; an inverted box pleat at the center back seam; an in-the-seam ID pocket with 4–1/4-inch wide entry point at the top right edge of the front yoke; and a waistband gripper strip. The skirt will secure with a button and loop on the inside of the yoke at the center back opening and an invisible slide fastener. Two hanger loops, one on each side seam, will be caught in the waistband seam on the inside of the skirt.

c. How worn. The skirt should fall between 1 inch above and 2 inches below the midpoint of the knee, and the

length of back vent will not be less than 5 inches long. The skirt viewed from the front and back should continue the slender lines of the coat, tapered slightly at the sides (see TM 10–227 for additional fit guidance).
