Oh wow.
Chinese airline Hainan Airlines recently revealed its latest uniform collection for its cabin crew, and we couldn’t be more impressed.
Although uniforms of this nature are generally quite standard, some being awful, others a mere okay, Hainan’s collection leans more into the haute couture side of fashion.
Designed by well-known Chinese designer Laurence Xu, the uniforms make their mark by blending eastern and western styles and the results are pretty damn elegant, reports CNN:
“The fusion of traditional Chinese elements and popular international fashion created an Oriental masterpiece that turned heads in Paris,” it says.
Xu based the designs on the Cheongsam — a traditional formal Chinese dress, which he pairs with Western-style fitted coats and capes. The pastel-colored dresses are decorated with delicate clouds, crashing waves and mountains.
Take a look for yourself:
Super sexy – I would definitely wear that coat.
The airline took two years for the design process to be completed, and debuted the collection at the 2017 Laurence Xu Haute Couture Show at Paris Couture Week Fall/Winter 2017.
A fashion force to be reckoned with? Indeed, although I doubt SAA could afford such expenditure.
