KLM finally presented its new uniform for all the female employees. The new uniforms are designed by Mart Visser. Here is the press release

KLM presents new women's uniform designed by Mart Visser
Amstelveen – 2009-01-10

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines today presented its new women’s uniform at a fashion show held at Schiphol. From April 2010, more than 11,000 cabin and ground crew members – and KLM and KLM Cityhopper’s female pilots – will begin wearing the uniforms created by Dutch fashion designer Mart Visser.

While the new uniform will retain the KLM blue colour that has characterised it since 1971, it does boast a completely different design. “By investing in a new uniform we are demonstrating, especially now in these times of financial crisis, that we have confidence in the future and the KLM brand,” said KLM President & CEO Peter Hartman. “Mart Visser sees company clothing as a statement to the outside world. His philosophy ties in nicely with KLM’s wishes. It’s fantastic to see how much pride the ladies exude dressed in the new uniform.”

A great deal of prior research went into identifying user wishes and requirements.
For example, the uniform must be comfortable yet sustainable, suitable for use in different seasons, and in keeping with KLM’s image. Mart Visser set off at the start of his creative process armed with such information. Mart Visser: “Regarding my creations, I always say: ‘back to a new tradition.’ In addition to aspects like comfort and functionality, I’ve added my signature as a designer to other good traditions such as the KLM blue: a feminine form with an open, fresh and powerful look and feel. This generates feelings of pride and pleasure, impacting KLM’s passengers favourably too.”

In recent months, one hundred KLM employees tested the creations in practice. The trial provided a wealth of information, on which basis several aspects of the uniform have been improved. The new uniform will be visible on the ground and in the air from April 2010. The current women’s uniform was presented in 1990. Mart Visser’s design marks KLM’s 10th women’s uniform since the first outfit was introduced in 1935. The men’s uniform was revamped in 2000 by fashion icon Oger.

I had always liked their current uniform and thought they didn't need a change, maybe a different scarf here and there! But will say that dress is not flattering at all and what's with the long-sleeved white shirt underneath it?

Yuck!

Interesting that the females will finally have a pants option. Up until now, the only females who could wear pants in the Nina Ricci uniform were the ones who worked in the travel clinic.

I think I'll have to agree with AznMadSci: they really didn't need a change (but I guess this new uniform will be a nice motivation boost!). There isn't anything wrong with the current uniform, infact, I prefer it over this new one. The current uniform displays much more authority and 'no-nonsense'.

But I think it would look better if it was more like a male pilot's hat.

I actually like it.Its not that big change from the current one.The dress with the white sleeves under just looks weird.Looks more like a cleaning lady then a F/A. Maybe if the removed the white sleeves, it would be a nice summer dress.
Also the female flight deck uniform is just strange.All flight deck should have the standard hats.

The old uniform also has an pants option. But it wasn't available to everyone. I really don't know what the reasoning is for that. When I worked at KLM in AUA the Service Agents wore pants if the elected to. Also saw staff from KLM Health Services and KLM Cityhopper wear pants.

Speaking of KLC... what will be the distiguishing mark between KLM mainline and KLM Cityhopper's uniform? The scarf?

Yes the white sleeved dress is kinda out of place doesn't make sense for a FA. Looks more like a mechanic in a dress. duck  lol Anywho I'm sure when the ladies choose the ones they like, in the words of Tim Gunn, they'll "make it work"! The ones with the taste and talent to do so that is! On the other side I've always liked the pin stripe of BAs.

I shant tell you what my dutch born wife thinks of those uniforms (my wife left holland at the age of 4). my view (for what its worth) is the airline really needs to rethink this "new uniform". Very unflattering. However, I have not seen the uniform up front (in reality) so they may be better than what they look like in photos. One can only hope.

Yeah I don't think it's all that bad (but then I do wear the worst uniform in the industry so may bias my judgment). Not sure about the dress though.

Look its a uniform that conveys the brand well, is it particularly stylish? No, does it have a decent signature piece? No. But it's not particularly hideous.Not sure how the pants will look on everyone, but hey looks good on that girl and perhaps the rest can show some discretion and wear the skirt!  Wink

The parts of the AF uniform are awesome others not so, this is perhaps more balanced with it all looking just okay.

The female pilot looks great though I think. I must confess though one strong point for this uniform, odly enough is how 'uniform' it is! Nothing worse that having a scarf or something that everyone wears differently.

All in all in my opinion a big improvement! shame the ladies don't have a hat though  Sad

Guys, i've seen them walking around the crew center a lot lately, and they look good actually, not at all old-fashioned. The photographs posted here are not that good, you don't really get to have a good look at the female F/A uniforms, except the one with pants which, in my opinion, is not well represented on the pic.

My girlfriend is an FA with KLM and the old one looks really good on her, but so does the new one, it took me a while getting used to the new one because i basically grew up with the old uni...

As for the female pilots, this new one is waaaaaaaaay better, much more female like, and the hat is very nice, the girls like em, they even helped design it.

overall, it aint so bad, and remember it takes a while to get used to change after a small 20 years...this one is fresh, stylish and workable.

The timing of the introduction of the new uniform IMO is totally wrong.
With the current uniform was nothing wrong.
Probably several (very expensive ) working groups have produced numerous proposals for a new uniform.
When the economic downturn started, it would have been wise to put the program "on ice" .

The invested money could then be used for other critical issues, caused by the current economic crises.

While I have no qualms of the new jacket nor the pantsuit, how does you girlfriend look in that dress with the long-sleeved white shirt? Is that long-sleeved shirt required? If they added at least a belt or something, that dress would at least be rather figure-flattering than just a sad light blue sack.

About the "Sack",

Yesterday we asked the girl in the picture where this thing came from all of a sudden. My girlfriend also is a KL F/A and had not seen this one when going for her uniform-fitting session last month.

It appears The Sack is a surprise from the designer (Mart Visser) and can be ordered separately, but it will cost the F/A 40 euro's.

Looking at the response so far, I don't believe too many of them will be ordered...

Apart from that, the new uniform looks better than the old one, it just takes some getting used to. The pics don't do it justice. Lets hope KLM puts out a maximum pant size though, looking at the avarage dutch female's butt...

Looks somewhat "dated", nothing to write home about. KLM and the designer should have been more creative...I think they were too conservative on their approach. Not much of a change; and the white sleeves, weird! I think the "white sleeves" uniform is a variation of the serving garment and the sleeves protect the elbows when handling hot food in the galley ovens...otherwise, the sleeves look hideous.  Sad

Fine for me if that what you think, but keep in mind that uniforms which show the company colours in a billboard style are NOT considered stylish, but CHEEP...

At least LH, SN or IB manage to make their cabin crew look like distinguished ladies, not corporate teletubbies like the 3 other airlines: entirely red (OS), blue (KL) or green (AZ) is just tasteless really and it hurts the eyes after a long haul flight...

Ahhh too true, the SN and IB uniforms look great so modern and chic very stylish and very european, hard to beat Euro style like that. The older KL and AZ ones look like something from the 90s whilst the OS one looks like something from the 80....blah

Thanks for sharing. Very nice uniform by KLM, it will just further boost what is one of the greatest crew in the airline industry.
