Emilio Pucci:

Braniff

The first women's development were a member of the crew team exclusively for the provision of medical services, but soon their duties expanded, and the girls began to represent the face of the company. Their shape of the began to overlap with fashion, and Emilio Pucci became the first designer who dressed the board. From the sixties to the seventies, he worked with Braniff airline, for whose employees he created short pink dresses and overalls with multi -colored prints. Another invention of the designer is a transparent plastic helmet that looks like a spacesuit, born under the pressure of the space popular in those years. The helmet was supposed to protect the hairstyles of the stewardesses during the weather, but the girls practically did not use it.

Christian Lacrois:

Air France

In 2004, serious financial problems had already begun in Kristian Lacroquer's fashion house, and the chairmanship in the National Center for the stage costume awaited him two more years later. Then, the French company Air France invited the Lacrox to become a national hero to create the form of stewardesses, which will be used at least until 2014. Clothing became quite recognizable due to the fact that the fitted blue dresses began to be tied to a scarlet bow.

Paul Costello and Julian McDonald:

British Airways

Paul Costello, who can be called one of the founders of modern British fashion, offered to create a form for British Airways in 1992, and over the next twelve years it remained unchanged. I must say, after that the designer repeatedly dressed not only the stewardesses of other airlines, but also of various kinds of athletes, including the Olympic team of Ireland. As for British Airways, in 2004 they invited the more modern Julian McDonald, who added several bright short dresses to classic pots, jackets and skirts-pencils.

Philip Tracy:

London metro

Together with the designer of Anna Tyrrel, he created a form for employees of the London metro, or rather, hats that allow them to be easily distinguished from passers -by. We see this form on the staff of the British subway to this day.

Bruce Oldfield:

McDonald's

Bruce Oldfield sews clothes for celebrities, politicians and aristocracy to order, and at one time he was a favorite of Princess Diana. Oddly enough, it is the Lux class designer who was chosen to create the form of McDonald's forms in 2008. “Many cannot perceive the words“ McDonald's ”and“ chic ”in one sentence, but my goal was to make it possible. It was a serious challenge, but I am very pleased with the result, ”the designer commented on his work.

Praobal Gurung and Sophie Tialay:

Sephora

Just the other day, designers Nina Neretina and Donis Launtus showed the uniform, which they created for employees of Gorky Park. Each of the eight images of the unisex is intended for a certain professional unit. As a material, the duet chose a dark blue denim, and also used camouflage inserts and special stripes. “Gorky Park for us is your favorite, one might say, native place. In the early nineties, we studied on Leninsky Prospekt, and exactly opposite our institute there was an entrance to Gorky Park. Even physical education classes took place there. And, of course, we spent almost all the free time in the park, in the Neskuchny Garden, in the Cafe-glass “Meeting” and on the embankment, ”says Nina Neretina.
