ModernLaLazation:  “Healthcare Goes Glamour”
SUMMER 2009

By “Social Diva Doctor”

There is no doubt that healthcare has never been associated with fashion.  The wait is long over due.  The question people keep asking is:  where is fashion in healthcare?  The simple answer is:  there has never been any “true” fashion in healthcare.  What seems to have been in existence were the unflattering white uniforms or scrubs worn by nurses centuries ago or the unstylish scrubs worn today.  The problem continues to be the dull colors, limited styles, and loose fits without much structure to the silhouette.  Though the loosely fitted styles appear to be as comfortable as someone would feel when wearing pajamas, the styles are just as important.

The fashion urgency calls for the need to revolutionize the medical uniform industry.  By doing so, healthcare uniforms could use some glamour to bring more vibrancy, professionalism, sophistication, and functionality without compromising comfort that is most important considering the long hours healthcare professionals have to live in their uniforms.  Need to be saved from health fashion disaster?  Here comes La Layered Scrubs to the rescue with some ModernLaLazation.
