Israel
In the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), dress uniform is never actually worn inside Israel. It is only worn abroad, either by a Military attaché or by senior officers on official State visits. This rule also applies to IDF Mess dress. Because of the small number of uniforms required they are tailor made for the specific officer.
Each arm of the IDF (the Ground forces, Navy and Air Force) has its own dress uniform, with separate versions for summer and winter.
