Iberia unveils our newest generation of inflight/airport uniforms

[Iberia Airlines]

 

A half dozen years ago, our blog Love2Fly ran a series of posts reviewing the history of Iberia cabin-crew uniforms from 1946 through the first decade and a half of the 21st century. During that time the airline was fortunate to enlist a distinguished series of top Spanish designers of their times in crafting stylish yet eminently practical attire for its inflight and airport personnel - now numbering 6,500 - contributing to the airline's evolving brand. These have included couture greats such as Manuel Pertegaz, Elio Berhanyer, and Adolfo Domínguez.

Now that eminent list has been joined by its first ever woman, Barcelona designer Teresa Helbig, who last year won a competition over 29 other contenders and whose dresses, suits, skirts, trousers, shirts, blouses, overcoats, handbags, cardigans, blazers, waistcoats, scarves, knitted jumpers, polo shirts, and neckties will debut in airports and on flights on 1 May.
