Thanks to those that thanked me for posting the pics :-x   It's not all political doom and gloom on the boards.

The article I grabbed the photos from referred to the trench coat as a bit  "Inspector Gadget" !  I reckon they are pretty cool, but I did like the old orange short skirt one ... presumably from the Twiggy era ...

Where would I find a picture of the uniform they are replacing? Is it the red one?

This is the current one Brighton.  I much prefer the new one to the Morrissey one.

I agree Icy and it is great to see Australian wool-growers being represented again instead of the ghastly fabric used in the last uniforms.

Whilst the new design works on a skinny model like Kerr, it isn't going to suit all body types.

The beauty of the previous uniform designed by Morrisey is that all women could wear it and still look good. It was also instantly recognisable thanks to the indigenous motifs.

This could be any airlines uniform. 

Boring.

And the guys look like busboys.

That is what a large part of their role is - both the males and the females :^O

Air Hostesses have to have the right body image anyway don't they Martini?  I've never seen an obese hostie.

I really like the trench coat and trilby but I'm in two minds about the pink.
