Uniforms & Insignia Placement
Girls wear a uniform sash, vest, or tunic when they participate in ceremonies or officially represent Girl Scouts to proudly display their earned awards. To complete the uniform, choose from our casual or dress uniform components or wear your own khaki pants with a white shirt.
The official uniform for adults is navy blue business attire worn with a scarf and membership pins for women and men.
Insignia placement: Not sure where the insignia and emblems go on the uniform?
During this transition time, girls do not have to remove previously-earned awards from their sashes or vests to conform to the “new” placement guidelines. New awards may be worn in combination with badges, pins, and insignia already earned at their age level.
