Hospital uniforms worn by physicians and nurses are usually boring, but functional outfits that are comfortable to be worn during the day. Updating these uniforms and giving women more colour options is the goal of Peaches Uniforms, who recently signed a deal with actress Katherine Heigl, who stars in the American television show ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ as a physician and was in the summer movie ‘Knocked Up’.“I have tremendous respect for women in the health care industry. I wanted to create a line of scrubs that would allow women to infuse some of their personality and style into their work apparel. When you feel good about how you look, you are more confident, more motivated, and it can lift your spirits,” Heigl said in a statement.
The uniforms will be available in four different colour schemes that allow nurses and physicians to choose clothing that best fits their personality. “When you hear the word scrubs, it automatically connotes boring and basic. We're trying to give our industry a step up. We thought she [Katerine Heigl] would be a great role model for the health care industry,” said Peaches Uniforms CEO Barry Rothschild.
Heigl signed a deal with the company in June and is allowed to make changes and add her input to all designs. The uniforms are not only more appealing to the eye, they are also functional with additional pockets to carry equipment, badges, and other items.

the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
