Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) is reviving its glamorous past with new designer uniforms for cabin crew, crafted by esteemed Pakistani fashion designer Hassan Sheheryar Yasin (HSY). As part of an effort to modernise the national flag carrier and enhance its international image, the new uniforms will debut on the airline's inaugural Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner service from London to Islamabad on October 31.
This move pays homage to the airline's rich history of collaborating with renowned designers, such as Pierre Cardin and British couturier Sir Hardy Amies, who created iconic uniforms in the past. HSY's involvement marks a return to a tradition dating back to the 1960s, blending aviation and high fashion. The designer chose uniforms that prioritize comfort, practicality, and elegance, featuring breathable fabrics, structured tailoring, and designs inspired by Pakistan's cultural heritage.
PIA's transformation under new management includes modernising its fleet and improving passenger services, as well as plans to increase London flights to seven weekly services starting October 27.
