The Asian carriers have simply stunning uniforms, as mentioned they really do stand out and are very traditional.
As much as they look fantastic, I, myself have always wondered if they would be able to move freely in the event of an emergancy in those tight skirts/ dresses, and sari's. I do remember hearing something about one carrier, cant remember if it was an Asian or Indian Airline, that had the FA's wearing thongs. I don't know how they would fare up in an emergancy either, or even just in day to day duties such as putting the park break on the trolley.
QF uniforms are all fire retarded. So even though the dresses may look like they are not, I know that they definatley are.
There were stories quiet sometime ago that Virgin B uniforms are not fire retarded. I'd really be interested to find out if they are or not. I welcome any Virgin B FA's to let us all know.
