Hi Emma you can wear trousers instead of the skirt if you prefer, just let your training team know and the stores know when you are being issued your uniform. The only one currently that hasn't been changed yet is mess dress, everything is adapting and changing all the time to ensure we stay an inclusive and diverse Army.
