Qantas unveiled a new uniform, the work of acclaimed Australian designer Martin Grant, to be worn by 12,600 uniformed employees starting early 2014. Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce said he was proud to launch a new uniform design for Qantas — the first in 10 years. “This is a new look for a new chapter for Qantas,” said Joyce. “The new uniform speaks of Australian style on the global stage.” Martin has designed 35 elegant garments for female and male employees. Against French navy suiting and white shirting, variations of the Qantas red — ruby red and fuchsia pink — are featured in diagonal stripes, recreating the idea of the Qantas triangle, across tops and dresses for women and on ties for men. Female employees will wear a combination of a dress, tops, a suit and a trench overcoat, accompanied by a stylish scarf and a trilby hat in a knitted fabric made from recycled bottle tops. The male suiting is neat and structured. Qantas international and domestic cabin crew and ground employees will be wearing the new design in early 2014.
