Common issues with the uniform:
Female cabin crew blouse is see-through, and the fabric catches and pulls on velcro and hair. Melts easily when ironed and seems to remove makeup. No modesty button so frequently pops open for those of larger bust.
Collar on the dress is high and stiff and has caused rashes on some crew.
Jumpsuit impractical for use on board, reports of it coming apart at the seams.
Male cabin crew shirt collar is wide and clip on tie knot is small so the fake tie knot keeps slipping out from under the collar. Collars are bobbling and shirt cuffs are fraying.
Cabin crew ties prone to fraying.
Men's slim fit trousers with side adjusters instead of belt won't stay up.
Black finish on belt peeling.
Winter scarf constantly shedding purple fluff.
Male pilot shirts have "hidden" pockets which are just a disaster.
Buttons on flight crew jackets break easily.
On a positive note the fabrics in the new uniform (bar the cabin crew blouse) are much more breathable than the old one and the slight stretch in the fabric aids wearability and comfort.
