Delta’s 1969 to 1970 uniform came in three solid pastels, Aquanox Blue, Sunshine Yellow, and the Grenelle Green color of this polyester-knit dress. With accessories and reversible serving smocks, six combinations were possible. The tall huntsman-style hat, by renowned New York milliner Mae Hanauer, fit over a beehive hairdo. It has a “chimney top” and a color-coordinated band.
