I am curious -- for comparison purposes, anyone care to post picture of their current uniform?

Thanks Glenn
their current uniform looks fine to me -- they are different and classic. Orange color is easy to notice.

Still too much orange. Orange, to me, doesn't convey "efficient business." Blue, gray and even red are better than the orange.
Ugh.
Worked for too many airlines to list. Banktupcy after bankruptcy after bankruptcy.

That suit looks awful on both him and her! Badly tailored .. and 3 buttons is definitely not the way to go! Look at his sleeves .. way to much fabric, let a tailor lay his hand on that and it will look the professional way it's intended!
Suits can look wonderful .. if done right!

For a LCC, this uniform doesn't fit. I'm used to more of a casual approach.

Mmm... I think that the lapel detail on the womens' jacket is lost behind the shirt collar; with that jacket, I would say a bigger lapel would look better.
And for my money: they should've gone bolder, with orange blouses for both men and women, with a white scarf with the easyJet logo in orange for the females, and a white-and brown club tie for men.
And that man should have a logo scarf/hanky folded into a point and tucked in his top jacket pocket.
Now then, all that said, I will admit that there's a broad section of humanity (likely, some of them among easyJet's flight attendant staff) that would look TERRIBLE in that much orange. Even the colors selected for the uniforms as depicted aren't going to be flattering on everyone.

One of the possible new uniforms that we voted on had an orange shirt, without the tie and with a waistcoat, and another was a mix of the other two options, with white shirts, orange shirts, the tie shown above, waistcoat for men, etc.
I for one am glad to be getting the new uniform - maybe people will stop gawking at me when I walk through the terminal now.

I'm not so keen on either uniform.. The old uniform is too orange for me and looks too simple, however the new uniform looks a bit too corporate for low-frills EasyJet.

The new uniform looks awful. Really cheap and boring. It not helping that both people in the photo look like they want to be at home having a sleep.
After the Airline TV show, I came to grow rather fond of the orange Easyjet uniform. What a shame it's being replaced with an invisible uniform that won't stand out...
I do quite enjoy a spot of flying - more so when it's not in Economy!

Well if there is an efficient business, EZY is a good example!
This uniform doesn't really seem to be a crew uniform. And the woman on the pic doesn't seem all too confortable about what she's wearing!
A man without the knowledge of his past history,culture and origins is like a tree without roots

Very sharp though I think the jackets are a bit overboard. A shirt and tie usualy suites me.

Never be afraid to stand up for who you are.
25 757lgw: Do you think the change has anything to do with competing against ryanair, after all the ryanair uniform is so formal for an airline so cheap?
26 Swiftski: It's not fantastic, but I think it's a major leap from current!
27 Mack8994: It looks great...but I honestly think it is a little too formal for an LCC. The previous one was too casual. A combination of the two would have been
28 IAHFLYER: Looks amazing, but the guy needs a tie similar to the scarf on the lady or he may just blend in like a passenger!
29 BA767s: The photos shown are not meant for public display. Tbh they shouldnt be on this site in the first place. easyJet are looking into producing a scarf t

35 BFS: Definately a step in the right direction, but far from perfect. The cabin crew had three options to choose from by a vote, and there was one which was
36 Stjuard: I like the new uniform, but the people on the picture posted here are standing like no flight attendant should.
37 A3xx900: Looks like McDonald's management uniforms. Color and all...
38 FlyboyOz: Hmm...im quite confused...why easyjet wants to have formal uniform rather than casual uniform? It's doesnt look smart....Look at Virgin Blue uniform..
39 VonRichtofen: How many Easyjet pax wear suits? If the new uniform was styled like a football jersey, then you'd have a point Kris[Edited 2006-12-26 10:09:14]
40 UAL777UK: Hmm, I think it looks a bit too formal for easyJet. Its not like their planes are flooded with suits going on business its more leisure travellers!
41 Jmc757: Just a thought... the poeple that chose this uniform are the people that are going to have to wear, and work with it day in day out. So no matter whet
42 HBJZA: It really depends on destination. Early morning and late evening flights between GVA and London are mostly flown by business people...... Of course i
43 Noelg: I really don't like it - it's way too smart. I think the T-shirt looks much better for LCCs, I like BMIBaby's for instance.
44 EZYAirbus: I work at Luton as ground crew for easyjet and you would be suprised at how many people you see in suits going on business!
45 Jamesbaldwyn: I don't like it, the woman in the picture seriously looks like shes on heavy drugs. It wont suit seeing that their livery is glowing orange!
46 WexCan: The crew voted for this uniform because, quite frankly, a lot of crew are embarrassed by the current uniform. This can really affect the crew's moral

50 1stfl94: A big improvement over the old one but I'm pretty sure you can get a better looking suit from Primark

52 HZ747300: compare the pictures with post #1, and reply #5. In #1, the people look professional, but sad. The guy looks like he is on the verge of crying, and th
