Cool Pilot Shirts- recommendations wanted!

I want to buy some quality, tapered LADIES pilot shirts! Up until now I have made do with mens ones since those were the only ones available when I needed them...) but enough is enough I don't want to look like a bag any more.

Can anyone recommend where to buy some (online is ok). Also a nice crossover tie would be great too...

And while we are on the topic, you airline or corporate folks- what do the lady pilots wear? Is there any difference in the uniform from what the men wear?

thanks! gotta look my best =) j/k

I wear so called ladies pilot shirts. Still too baggy really. Colleagues get them tailored, so far I haven't been bothered.

As for the neck wear. I wear either the mens tie or a silly little scarf thing that IMHO looks silly. However, that's what they want us to wear.
The tie is useful to "look like a pilot" in countries that have yet to really accept that women can drive, let alone fly aeroplanes.

I would highly recommend the Churchill Ladies Pilot Shirt. I wear the short sleeved version - haven't tried the long sleeved one. The quality and fit are very good and they still look white after repeated washing (chucked into the washing machine).

Hope this isn't construed as an advert: Burlington Uniforms Ltd - Providing all your staff/work uniforms and corporatewear needs. The code for the ladies shirt is 5212.
