Just wondering if you know what these are ? On a female uniform. Label faded, somebody has glued sergeants stripes on but I'm not convinced they should be there. Looks like the badges & buttons are Army Intelligence Corps

Intelligence Corps collar badge and button, and Royal Military Police shoulder title.
On an Int Corps jacket?

Hi yes just Id'ed the Intelligence Corps buttons & collar dogs. Is the green braid on the epaulettes indicative of Intelligence Corps ? Any ideas on dates ? There is a MP badge on the left shoulder & Sergeants stripes on the right (stuck on annoyingly. I suspect it has been fancy dress at some point, but the jacket seems good quality & I'd like to return it to what it should be. Do the dogs & silver colour indicate officer ?

Cypress green piping on the shoulder straps is correct for Intelligence Corps Number 1 Dress Blues for other ranks. Females were badged Intelligence Corps from the early 1990s.

Rank chevrons should be gold on Cypress green.

Collar badges and buttons in gold anodised.

No shoulder titles are worn.

Thanks Tim, I was confused as looking for MP connection, but in reality those were just put on to the uniform at some point, they are now off, just need to get rid of the glue
