Worn from 1987 to 1992, this UTA (Union de Transports Aériens) uniform was created by the House of Dior under creative director Marc Bohan (b. 1926). The navy blue polyester midi skirt reflects the “power-dressing” trends in women’s career wear of the 1980s and the new direction toward a look of professionalism chosen by many airlines of the era. The teal and blues of the blouse, scarf, and knit blend pullover help create a comfortable elegance. See more 80s fashion in "#FashionInFlight: A History of Airline Uniform Design", pre-security, in the Aviation Museum and Library and the Main Hall of the International Terminal. The Aviation Museum and Library is open daily from 10am to 4:30pm, excluding holidays. http://bit.ly/fashioninflight This image was posted on December 07, 2016.
