For Continental’s introduction of its “Proud Bird of the Pacific” Hawaiian service in 1970, a new group of uniforms was designed to project the airline’s identity and a sporty look of casual comfort. The bold stripe, polyester mini-dress in company colors has a gold-tone chain belt with a monogrammed medallion. Worn with a logo-pattern scarf, the uniform was issued until 1973. “#FashionInFlight: A History of Airline Uniform Design”, is on display, pre-security, in the International Terminal. http://bit.ly/fashioninflight
