This
photo of PIA Air Hostesses was taken in 1975. British dress designer Sir Hardy Amies, best known
for being royal dress maker to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of
United Kingdom, was responsible for the uniform that came in
1975. The purple and magenta kameezes had embroidered fronts,
with green shalwars and pretty printed dupattas inspired by the
folk wear of Pakistani village women. Teamed with black bags and
smartly styled comfortable black leather sandals, these bright
uniforms introduced a cheerful note on board PIA. This uniform design was used from 1975 to
1986 |
