Qantas to replace Miranda Kerr-fronted uniform

Qantas is on the lookout for a new Australian designer to replace the staff uniform famously launched by supermodel Miranda Kerr over a decade ago. The updated look will debut in 2027, and the airline added it would survey staff to assist in developing the new outfits. “With a vast and growing international and domestic network, a historic fleet renewal program underway and the final frontier of global aviation just around the corner it’s time to define a new look for our people that reflects where we are heading,” said Qantas CEO Vanessa Hudson. The previous look was launched in 2013 and designed by Paris-based Australian Martin Grant. In total, 35 different garments were originally produced featuring French navy suits and white shirts alongside Qantas red “variations” of ruby red and fuchsia pink. However, newspapers reported that staff complained the outfits were “too sexy” and not practical for the physical work undertaken on an aircraft.<br/>
