WW2 British Grenadier Guards Officer’s Service Dress and Trousers

The item consists of an original WW2 British Grenadier Guards Officer’s Service Dress tunic and matching trousers. The service dress was standard field and walking-out attire for British army officers during the Second World War. The set is tailored in khaki wool, characteristic of British uniforms from the period, and includes insignia denoting the wearer’s affiliation with the Grenadier Guards, one of the oldest and most prestigious regiments in the British Army. The tunic typically features brass buttons bearing regimental insignia, pleated chest pockets, and internal lining. The matching trousers are constructed from the same khaki wool cloth, with a high-rise waist and button fly. Such uniforms were worn both for ceremonial occasions and daily duties by officers and reflect period British military tailoring practices. This ensemble provides a representative example of British officer attire from the 1939–1945 period, with design elements that remained relatively consistent throughout the war.
