Slight thread drift.
Hugo Boss in Vienna used to make our Lauda Air uniforms. We did not wear hats, but the black overcoats were superb.
The chap that was the chauffeur for the owner of an Airline (BMI) no longer with us.
When he got the job he was told to go down the clothing stores where they would fit him out with a suit.
At the tailors he was asked how many stripes to add to his "pilots" suit, he inquired how many are there, to be told up to four, so he became a "Captain" overnight.
I often thought it looked funny to see a Captain hopping out of the front of the car to open the door for the owner.
