ALL DRESSED UP NOWHERE TO GO

Can you guess the airline by its flight attendant uniform?

BEING a flight attendant was once one of the most glamorous jobs in the world, with luxury travel and free flights.

While perhaps less glamorous now, one thing that still stands out are the outfits, which have changed over time.

Being well presented is an important part of the job - one member of the cabin crew even recently explained why it's important to wear lipstick while working.

Outfits have even been created by fashion designers over the years. Both Dior and Balenciaga created a range for Air France in the 60s, Valentino offered flight attendant uniforms for Trans World Airlines in the 70s and Qatar crew had Yves Saint Laurent outfits in the 80s.

More recently, Zac Posen designed the Delta uniforms and Vivienne Westwood created the Virgin Atlantic outfits.

We've rounded up some of the current outfits for the UK's best known airlines - can you guess the airline from the outfit?
