The new uniforms of
Alitalia flight staff gave rise to curiosity and praise from
passengers and tourists on Wednesday at Fiumicino airport.
After almost 20 years, pilots and flight attendants are now
wearing new ones reminiscent of 1950s and 1960s glamor, designed
by Milan-based Ettore Bilotta.
Female flight attendants are now wearing bordeaux-hued
attire instead of the previous green, while male ones wear grey
and green ones with a tie bearing a red print.
All the uniforms were made with fabric from Tuscany and
silk processed in Como. Male uniforms were made in the southern
Puglia region.
In just over 15 days, the uniforms were delivered to the
over 3,500 Alitalia flight attendants, while ground staff will
begin to use green-grey uniforms in the coming days.
